•Add Port Numbers to Custom Filter Templates

A port is a data pattern specific to the source and destination port numbers, including the protocol type and the direction of traffic. The Add Port to Fil- ter Template area in the display provides a convenient means of adding port numbers to a custom filter template.

There are three key steps to apply a filter template to a hardware resource:

1.After creating custom template, you must save it using the Save Custom Template button. This step is not required if you are using a pre-defined template.

2.You must add the template to the Template Combination box. Select the template and click on the Add button; the name of the template will appear in the Template Combination box.

3.You must use the Load Filter button so the filter as defined in the FILTER CREATION area is loaded to the hardware device.

Each Display or Capture filter applies only to the currently active resource. Once you have created and saved a unique filter template, you can access it from other resources.
