Custom Filter Configuration 3-23
Setting Up A Bit Filter
Select BIT FILTERS from the Bridge Filters menu.
The Configure Bit Filters screen appears, as shown in Figure 3-8
.
You use this screen for setting up bit filters, of which you can
have up to five input and five output bit filters. The screen
displays the bit filters' names (on the left) and a bit filter edit area
(on the right).
Bit filters selectively filter out traffic based on bit values occurring
in the first 64 bytes of each frame and can be of two types, input
and output. Input filters will test packets as they are received and
output filters will test packets as they are transmitted. When you
use the Configure Bit Filters screen to set up and edit bit filters,
you must choose the filter type first.
