12.10.5 Define Site Filter
Configures packet filters for the site. If a particular packet filter is not configured, all packets are considered
matches of that filter type and are accepted. For example, if no incoming packet filter is configured, all
packets will be accepted as incoming packets and will be allowed in.
Restrictions Requires privileged user status.
Parameters SiteName
Enter a site name of up to 12 characters.
Idle
Configures the packet filter that resets the idle timer. Packets that pass this
filter will reset the timer, keeping the site from timing out and disconnecting.
Must be used in conjunction with the filtername parameter.
Incoming
Configures the packet filter for packets that come into the SCS from the remote
site. Packets that do not pass this filter will be dropped. Must be used in
conjunction with the filtername parameter.
Outgoing
Configures the packet filter for packets going from the SCS to the remote site.
Packets that do not pass this filter will be dropped. Must be used in conjunction
with the filtername parameter.
Startup
Configures the packet filter for regulating connections. Packets that pass this
filter can cause the site to initiate a connection. Packets that do not pass this
filter will be dropped if a link is not already in place, but will continue to their
destination if a link has already been established. Must be used in conjunction
with the filtername parameter.
filtername
Sets the filter to be used for a specific type of packet filtering. Filter names
must be 3 characters or fewer.
