Configuring Packet Filtering
Packet filtering provides security barriers between the customer and the
service provider, as well as between different custome rs attached to the
same local switch, by blocking NetBIOS traffic, DHCP service requests,
and DHCP replies on specific ports.
Note: Packet Filtering occupies valuable hardware resources. Using
Private VLANs provides a more efficient alternative for separating
the traffic sent to each subscriber (see “Configuring Private
VLANs” on page 32-17).

Filtering Service Packets

Packet filtering provides security the following security features:
Blocking DHCP service requests to ensure that only static addresses
assigned by the service provider are used.
Blocking DHCP replies on specific ports to ensure that DHCP service
requests are only answered through authorized uplink ports.
