Definition of Filter Tests

 

You need to define the filter test which will be applied to every packet that is

 

transmitted. Use any combination of the following parameters to define the filter

 

test:

 

Protocol

 

Operation (block, forward, etc.)

 

Interface (LAN, Link)

 

Destination and/or source IP address of the packet

 

Destination and/or source MAC address of the packet (layer 2)

 

IP socket (upper and lower level)

 

IP packet type (broadcast, multicast).

Note

 

Up to 18 filters can be defined. To avoid reducing FCD-IPM performance, minimize

 

the number of active filters.

 

Defining Filters

 

Filters can be defined through the control port, TELNET or SNMP. First decide on

 

the mode and conditions for a filter, then follow the instructions below to set filter

 

parameters.

Note

 

Remember that forwarding takes precedence over blocking. If there is a

 

combination of filters which contain both operations, the frame will be forwarded.
