8.4 Applying a Filter and Factory Defaults
This section shows you where to apply the filter(s) after you design it (them). Two sets of factory
default filter rules have been configured in Menu 21 to prevent NetBIOS traffic from triggering
calls (see Figure 8-7 Menu 21 - Filter Set Configuration).
8.4.1 Ethernet traffic
You seldom need to filter Ethernet traffic; however, the filter sets may be useful to block certain
packets, reduce traffic and prevent security breaches. Go to Menu 3.1 (shown below) and enter
the number(s) of the filter set(s) that you want to apply as appropriate. You can choose up to four
filter sets (from twelve) by entering their numbers separated by commas, e.g., 3, 4, 6, 11.
