Filters
The Wireless Array’s integrated firewall uses stateful inspection to speed the
decision of whether to allow or deny traffic. Filters are used to define the rules
used for blocking or passing traffic. Filters can also set the VLAN and QoS level
for selected traffic.

User connections managed by the firewall are maintained statefully — once a user
flow is established through the Array, it is recognized and passed through
This feature is only available if the Array’s license includes the Xirrus
Advanced RF Security Manager (RSM). If a setting is unavailable
(grayed out), then your license does not support the feature. Please see
“About Licensing and Upgrades” on page 361.
The air cleaner feature offers a number of predetermined filter rules that
eliminate a great deal of unnecessary wireless traffic. See “Air Cleaner” on
page 403.
