Device Configuration
ORiNOCO® 802.11n Access Points - Software Management Guide 85
Tabulated below are the ‘Storm Threshold Filter’ parameters and the method to configure the configurable parameters:
Click OK and COMMIT, to save the configured parameters.
: Wireless 2 parameters of Storm Threshold Filters are applicable only to a dual-radio device.
5.8.6 Packet Forwarding
Packet Forwarding is the process of relaying the data packets, through a pre-configured gateway (connected to the AP
device either through ethernet interface or WDS interface). On receiving the traffic (uplink) from the wireless clients, the AP
device forwards the traffic to the destined gateway, by tagging it with the gateway MAC address. The gateway device
(configured according to the user requirement) monitors the uplink traffic, for improved security.
Navigate to CONFIGURATION > Filters > Packet Forwarding. The Packet Forwarding screen appears.

Tabulated below are the ‘Packet Forwarding’ parameters and the method to configure the configurable parameters:
Parameter Description
Interface Specifies a read - only parameter that represents 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 Specifies 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. To configure, enter a value ranging
from 0 to 65536.
Broadcast Threshold Specifies 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. To configure, enter a value ranging
from 0 to 65536.
