Defining Static Filters
Applying a filter to an interface
Examples of applying a call filter to a WAN interface
Call filters prevent unnecessary connection time and help the MAX unit distinguish active 
traffic from noise. By default, any traffic to a remote site triggers a call, and any traffic across 
an active connection resets the connection’s idle timer. 
The following parameters apply a filter to a WAN connection and set the idle timer to 20 
seconds. If no packets get through the call filter in either direction for 20 seconds, the 
connection is torn down.

Examples of applying a TOS filter to a WAN interface
TOS filters instruct the system to set priority bits and Type of Service (TOS) classes of service 
on behalf of customer applications. The MAX unit does not implement priority queuing, but it 
does set information that can be used by upstream routers to prioritize and select links for 
particular data streams. TOS filters specify which bits to set in the TOS header of IP packets.
The following parameters apply to a TOS filter in a Connection profile. When the incoming 
data stream contains packets that match the TOS filter specification, the proxy-QoS and TOS 
settings specified in the filter are set in those packets.
