Chapter 27 Filter Configuration

The protocol dependent filter rules abbreviation are listed as follows:

Refer to the next section for information on configuring the filter rules.

To configure a filter rule, type its number in Menu 21.1.1 - Filter Rules Summary and press 
[ENTER] to open menu 21.1.1.1 for the rule.

To speed up filtering, all rules in a filter set must be of the same class, i.e., protocol filters or 
generic filters. The class of a filter set is determined by the first rule that you create. When 
applying the filter sets to a port, separate menu fields are provided for protocol and device 
filter sets. If you include a protocol filter set in a device filter field or vice versa, the Prestige 
will warn you and will not allow you to save.

This section shows you how to configure a TCP/IP filter rule. TCP/IP rules allow you to base 
the rule on the fields in the IP and the upper layer protocol, for example, UDP and TCP 
headers.
