Filter Menus
The filtering functions on the Router are based on IP address, MAC
address, URL or common network applications. Choose the type of
filtering to configure and enter the criteria appropriate for that type of
filtering. Each menu presents settings specific to the type. IP and MAC
based filtering rules can be applied sequentially so that each rule has
the option of forwarding packets that do not match the rule, or going to
the next rule on the list for further scrutiny.
IP/MAC Based Filter
IP and MAC based filters are indexed by rule set and again by
individual rule in the set. Choose IP or MAC based filtering options and
click the SAVE button to add the new rule to the list. To remove a rule
set from the list, select it and click on the Delete button. The Rule
Unmatched option determines whether to Forward a packet or go to
Next rule on the list. Each set applies the rules in the set sequentially
in the order they are listed (or indexed).
