Description
Unicast
(default)
Standard IP routing is used. Frames are
forwarded to the unicast MAC address of the
router. This is either the default router specified
in the [Tcpip] configuration menu of the access
point, or an alternative router assigned by ICMP
redirect.
Multicast
Reserved for future use.
Broadcast
OWL/IP frames are sent using an Ethernet
broadcast address. This capability allows use of
directed, and
All Subnets IP addressing.
Address
The Address setting is the target IP address of the access
point to which OWL/IP frames are addressed. The address
should be consistent with the type (unicast, multicast, or
broadcast). The prompt is:
Range is:
4 nums 0..255
Entries are cleared by setting addresses to 0.0.0.0.
[TX Filter]
Configuration of filters for the OWL/IP port is done using
the transmit filter ([TX Filter]) option. Filter setup is
similar to the normal Ethernet filter menu, described on
page 4-43. Note that the Ethernet receive filters and the
OWL/IP transmit filters are both applied to frames
forwarded through a tunnel.
OWL/IP filters restrict the frame types that are allowed to
be forwarded from the home subnet to remote subnets. By
default, filters are programmed to drop all protocol types
except for three protocols specified in the [SubTypes 1]
screen. The types are NNL DIX type 875b, IP Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP) DIX 0806, and ICMP 0001.
