Figure 5-69 Storm Threshold Filter
Tabulated below is the table which explains Storm Threshold Filter parameters and the method to configure the configurable
parameter(s):
Parameter Description
Interface Allows to configure the type of interface on which filtering has to be applied. The Storm
Threshold filter can be used to filter the traffic on two types of interfaces: Ethernet or
Wireless. By default, Storm Threshold filtering is disabled on both Ethernet and Wireless
interfaces.
Multicast Threshold Allows to configure the threshold value of the multicast packets to be processed for the
Ethernet or Wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold value
for multicast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled. The default Multicast
Threshold value is 0 per second.
Broadcast Threshold Allows to configure the threshold value of the broadcast packets to be processed for the
Ethernet or Wireless interface. Packets more than threshold value are dropped. If threshold value
for broadcast packets is set to '0', filtering is disabled. The default Broadcast
Threshold value is 0 per second.
After configuring the required parameters, click OK and then COMMIT.
5.10.6 WORP Intra Cell Blocking
: Intra Cell Blocking is applicable only to a BSU in Bridge Mode only.
The WORP Intra Cell Blocking feature restricts traffic between SUs which are registered to the same BSU. The two potential
reasons to isolate traffic among the SUs are:
• To provide better security by isolating the traffic from one SU to another in a public space.
• To block unwanted traffic between SUs to prevent this traffic from using bandwidth.
The user can form groups of SUs at the BSU which define the filtering criteria. All data to/from SUs belonging to the same group
are bridged. If a SU does not belong to any group, the BSU discards the data.
The user can also configure a Security Gateway to block traffic between SUs connected to different BSUs. All packets destined
for SUs not connected to the same BSU are forwarded to the Security Gateway MAC address (configured under Security
Gateway).
