4.6.5Bridge Filters

The bridge filtering mechanism provides a way for the users to define rules to allow or deny frames through the bridge based on source MAC address, destination MAC address and/or frame type. When bridge filtering is enabled, each frame is examined against the defined filter rules sequentially, and when a matched is determined, the appropriate filtering action (allow or deny) is performed. The bridge filter will only examine frames from interfaces which are part of the bridge itself. Twenty filter rules are supported with bridge filtering.

The MAC address must be in a xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx format, with 00-00- 00-00-00-00 or blanks meaning any address.

To edit or modify an existing filter rule, select the desired rule created previously in the Edit select box. The selected filter rule appears in the top section, as with the Add procedure. Make the desired change to the MAC address, frame type and access type, and click on Apply.
