The purpose of this filter is to minimize the amount of Ethernet traffic
between the Polling radio and the Remote radios for more efficient oper-
ation. For example, Unicast and ARP allows pings as well as UDP and
TCP polling in the transceiver's bridge, but it does not allow some pro-
tocols that tend to flood a network, including Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP).

IP Payload Configuration Settings

This section describes how to setup and configure the radio for
exchanging IP/Ethernet Payload data with Remote radios. It is an effi-
cient feature that supports Ethernet connectivity with maximum
over-the-air (OTA) efficiency for UDP and TCP data streams. Remote
radios receiving the data can then forward this traffic to their serial ports
or the Ethernet port. This feature is particularly useful for adding
Ethernet devices to a mixed SD/x710 system. This feature is distinctly
different than Ethernet Bridging, which is described above.
