(ASCEND) Re: ascend-users-digest V96 #1322
You can never "stop" the requests, you can just ignore them. CPU time
will still be spent processing and discarding the packets.
It will be less, of course, with the options you have listed below set as
they are since it won't route the packets to their respective locations
but your MAX will still recieve the packets.
