The items in the IPX Filters and Filter Sets screen are grouped into four areas:

■IPX packet filters

■IPX packet filter sets

■IPX SAP filters

■IPX SAP filter sets

The following sections explain the items in each of these areas.

IPX packet filters

For each IPX packet filter, you can configure a set of parameters to match on the source or destination attributes of IPX data packets coming from or going to the WAN.

Viewing and modifying packet filters

To display a view-only table of IPX packet filters, select Display/Change IPX Packet Filters in the IPX Filters and Filter Sets screen.

To modify any of the filters in the table, note the desired filter and press Return to go to the Change Packet Filter screen. The parameters in this screen are the same as the ones in the Add Packet Filter screen (see the next section).

Adding a packet filter

To add a new IPX packet filter, select Add IPX Packet Filter in the IPX Filters and Filter Sets screen and press Return. The Add Packet Filter screen appears.
