Select traffic direction from the drop
down menu, and check the network
interface which you want this rule to
apply on. Then, choose a protocol and
define the source or destination MAC
address which you want to control.
There are three options for traffic
direction: Outbound means from local
network to Internet; Inbound means
from Internet to local network;
Bi-direction includes both directions.
The protocols that you can choose is
listed as the right figure shows. Select
one proper protocol for this bridge
filtering rule.
For example, if we choose Outbound,
check br_0_35, select PPPoE as
protocol, and enter 00:90:96:01:2A:C3
into the Source MAC Address field,
then after clicking Apply, we will see
the result as shown in the right.
You can use Add or Delete button to
maintain the bridge filtering rules.
