Abstract

An apparatus and a method for filtering a broadcast message in a wireless network access equipment is discussed. The method includes searching for a registered communication terminal that should respond to a received broadcast message; checking whether the received broadcast message forwarding to the searched communication terminal requires a response; and transmitting a response instead to the communication terminal when the received broadcast message requires a response.
