Prestige 2302 Support Notes
•Active
Select Yes in the Active field.
•Offset (in bytes)
Enter 6 for the offset since the source MAC address starts at the 7th octet. This will set the Prestige to bypass checking on the first 6 octets (the destination MAC address).
•Length (in bytes)
Enter 6 for the length since a MAC address has 6 octets.
•Mask (in hexadecimal)
Specify the value that the Prestige will logically qualify (logical AND) the data in the packet. Since the Length is set to 6 the Mask should be 12 hexadecimal numbers. In this case, enter 'ffffffffffff' to mask the incoming source MAC address, [00 80 c8 4c ea 63].
•Value (in hexadecimal)
Specify the MAC address [00 80 c8 4c ea 63] that the Prestige should use to compare with the masked packet. If the result from the masked packet matches the 'Value' field, then the packet is considered a match.
•Action Matched=
Enter the action on the matched packets. In this case, we will drop it.
•Action Not Matched=
Enter the action on packets that do not match the mask. In this example, we will forward it. If you want to configure more rules, select 'Check Next Rule' to start configuring a next rule. However,
note that the new rule 'Filter Type' must be of the same type (in this example, 'Generic Filter Rule'). You must configure the Generic and TCPIP (IPX) filter rules in different filter sets.
