Filtering Node Addresses (Node)
The node option allows you to control the forwarding of packets based
on the source node addresses. As with multicast filtering, there is a
default action for those addresses not in the table. You may enter actions
for specific addresses to override the default action.
Specific node filters may be entered by specifying either the 6 byte
infrastructure address of the node or by specifying its IP address. If the
IP address is used, the Ethernet or Token Ring Bridge will determine the
infrastructure address associated with the IP address and use this for the
actual filtering.
You may filter packets based on the source address in the received
packet. For example, if you wanted to prevent all but a limited number
of hosts to communicate with nodes on the radio network, you would set
the default action to discard. Then add entries for the specific hosts
whose action is “forward”.
Setting the Destination Address (Ethdst, Tkdst, Raddst)
These options allow you to control the end destination for the Ethernet,
Token Ring, or radio network.
