Important Considerations

When you assign a packet filter to one or more ports, you must assign a processing path. The path (transmit all, transmit multicast, receive all, receive multicast, or receive internal) of a port can have only one packet filter assigned to it; however, you can assign a single packet filter to multiple paths and ports.

If you try to assign a filter to a port that already has a filter assigned, the system displays a warning message and the assignment fails.

After you assign the filter, ports and paths are removed from the list of possible values (which are listed in the Options table).

Possible values for filters (n) depend on the number of created or loaded filters on the system.

Possible values for bridge ports (n) depend on the number of existing bridge ports on the system.
