Filtering and Performance Considerations
5.5.2 Deleting a Port Filter
To delete a Port filter, at the LCM prompt:
1.Type filters delete
LCM prompts you for the filter index.
2.Enter the filter number. LCM responds filter deleted.
NOTE |
All filter indexes are sequential, beginning with the number one. When a filter is deleted, all filters are renumbered so that the filter index remains sequential.
5.6FILTERING AND PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS
When implementing filters, the FN10 must process packets to determine if they should be filtered. Therefore, the processing that takes place on filters can exact a toll on FN10 throughput (or forwarding) performance.
Typically, if you are using Bridge Address Table filters or a small number of Port filters, they will have little effect on performance. However, a large number of Port filters can reduce the maximum possible forwarding rate. For this reason, filters that are no longer needed should be removed.
