Adding a filter set

You can create up to eight different custom filter sets. Each filter set can contain up to 16 output filters and up to 16 input filters.

To add a new filter set, select Add IP Filter Set in the IP Filter Sets screen and press Return. The Add Filter Set screen appears.

Note: There are two groups of items in the Add IP Filter Set screen, one for input filters and one for output filters. The two groups work in essentially the same way, as you’ll see below.

Naming a new filter set

All new filter sets have a default name. The first filter set you add will be called Filter Set 1, the next filter will be Filter Set 2, and so on.

To give a new filter set a different name, select Filter Set Name and enter a new name for the filter set.

To save the filter set, select ADD FILTER SET. The saved filter set is empty (contains no filters), but you can return to it later to add filters (see “Modifying filter sets” on page 13-16). Or you can add filters to your new set before saving it (see “Adding filters to a filter set” on page 13-13).

To leave the Add Filter Set screen without saving the new filter set select CANCEL. You are returned to the IP Filter Sets screen.
