How To Configure Hardware Filters on SwitchBlade x908,
Introduction
The SwitchBlade x908,
These switches can filter on a range of Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 packet attributes, and perform a variety of different actions on the packets that match the filters.
Because the filters are
On the AlliedWare Plus OS,
1.To make a simple filter based on IP address, MAC address, TCP/UDP port, or ICMP type, you simply create one or more ACLs and apply them to a port.
You can build up a filter hierarchy by applying multiple ACLs to a port (e.g. make one ACL to allow traffic from a source IP address to a destination address, then a second ACL to drop all (other) traffic from that source IP address).
This How To Note calls ACLs that are applied to ports interface ACLs.
2.To make a filter based on a range of other packet settings, you use QoS match commands in one or more QoS
This note describes both approaches. Then it gives a series of examples, and ends by discussing how many filters you can make.
