Security/Filter Defines
The Router Option Module can filter packets based on certain pa-
rameters within the packet. The method used by the Router Option
Module allows the highest flexibility for defining filters and assign-
ing them to a profile. The filters are set up in two steps:
1. Defining the packet types,
2. Adding them to a list under the PPP profile or DLCI map.
See the section DLCI Mapping/Filters on page 4-32 for information on
how to set up filter profiles. This menu is used to define the individ-
ual filter defines based on packet type.
Filter Defines/MAC Filter Defines
Write security: 2; Read security: 3
The MAC filter is applied to bridge packets only. Bridge packets
which are forwarded by the bridge functionality of the Router Op-
tion Module are defined here. Up to 32 MAC defines can be specified.
