Figure 117: Categorical protocol filtering
The following are example situations in which you can configure protocol filtering where
NAT is disabled:
◦ If you block a subscriber from only PPoE and SNMP, then the subscriber retains
access to all other protocols and all ports.
◦ If you block PPoE, IPv4, and Uplink Broadcast, and you also check the
All others selection, then only Address Resolution Protocol is not filtered.
