This method appears to test a few conditions.

If an action frame, it returns true if SELF_PROTECTED. It then checks if it is either a broadcast or sent on an active link, and returns true if so. Otherwise, it returns false (indicating it is to be dropped)

Parameters
packetthe packet
headerthe header
fromthe MAC address of the sender
tothe MAC address of the receiver
Returns
true if successful, false if to be dropped
