Accept/Reject
The Accept/Reject column permits you to allow or disallow transmission of the packet, depending upon the entry in
the Source/Dest. column.
For example, if Source is enabled in the Source/Dest. column, and the Reject radio button is enabled in the
Accept/Reject column, the CPU will not allow a message broadcast from that MAC Address to pass through. If
Destination is enabled in the Source/Dest. column, and the Reject radio button is enabled in the Accept column, the
CPU will not allow the message intended for that MAC Address to pass through.
Alternatively, if Source is enabled in the Source/Dest. column, and the Accept radio button is enabled in the
Accept/Reject column, the CPU allows the message from that MAC Address to pass through. If Destination is
enabled in the Source/Dest. column, and the Accept radio button is enabled in the Accept/Reject column, the CPU
allows the message from that MAC Address to pass through.
