Enabled

Causes frames received on an 802.11b port with a protocol type

forwarded without conversion. If the frame has a protocol types
that is not found in the list, it will be converted to DIX format
before it is forwarded.

Disabled

without conversion; that is, when a SNAP frame is received from
an 802.11b radio with an OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier)
equal to 000000, it will be forwarded without conversion.
