Abstract:
This disclosure describes techniques for restricting activity of a status indicator if a received data unit is determined to be a protocol control unit that is selected for filtering. In one embodiment, a method is described that comprises receiving a data unit from a network, determining whether the received data unit is a protocol control unit, and restricting activity of a status indicator if the received data unit is determined to be the protocol control unit, or allowing activity of the status indicator if the received data unit is determined to be data other than the protocol control unit.
