Filters Fields

Forward Mode

This field determines what data to pass/not to pass, based on this field value and the filters listed on the current window. There are two available values which determine how the Adit will handle data to/from the LAN:

<All Frames NOT Matching Filters> any packets matching the filters listed will not be passed (i.e., pass all frames except those matching the enabled filters).

<ONLY Frames Matching Filters> enabled filters will have the PASS action. All packets matching the filters listed will be passed to/from the LAN. Any packets that do not match will be dropped (i.e., will not pass through the Adit).

Define Filter

Use this field to open the Define Filter window for the selected filter type. To open this window select the filter type and select [ENTER]. The filter windows are used to define the actual filter prior to enabling (adding) it on the current window.
