GigaSwitch Filters
The GigaSwitch Filters icon subview allows the user to configure Port
Matrices, Destination Filters, SAP Filters, SNAP Filters, and Source
Filters. These port matrices and filters can be configured to restrict traffic
from certain ports to a portion of the network, to isolate a device while
troubleshooting or to improve performance between ports by establishing a
path for the packets traveling between those ports.
