Enter the packet specific information for this filter.

To use the policy-based routing feature, you create a filter that forwards the traffic.

•Toggle Forward to Yes. This will display the Force Routing options.

•Toggle Force Routing to Yes.

•Enter the Gateway IP Address in standard dotted-quad notation to which the traffic should be forwarded.

•You can enter Source and Destination IP Address(es) and Mask(s), Protocol Type, and Source and

Destination Port ID(s) for the filter, if desired.

TOS field matching

Netopia Firmware Version 8.4 adds two additional new parameters to an IP filter: TOS and TOS Mask. Both fields accept values in the range 0 – 255.

Certain types of IP packets, such as voice or multimedia packets, are sensitive to latency introduced by the network. A delay-sensitive packet is one that has the low-latency bit set in the TOS field of the IP header. This means that if such packets are not received rapidly, the quality of service degrades. If you expect to route significant amounts of such traffic you can configure your router to route this type of traffic to a gateway other than your normal gateway using this feature.

The TOS field matching check is consistent with source and destination address matching.

Example: You want packets with the TOS low latency bit to go through VC 2 (via gateway 127.0.0.3) instead of your normal gateway. You would set up the filter as follows:
