You can determine if a filter is inactive by its syntax; AsyncOS changes the colon 
after the filter name to an exclamation point for inactive filters. If you use this 
syntax when entering or importing a filter, AsyncOS marks the filter as inactive.

For example, the following benign filter named “filterstatus” is entered. It is then 
made inactive using the 

filter -> set

 subcommand. Note that when the details 

of the filter are shown, the colon has been changed to an exclamation point (and 
is bold in the following example).
