Configuring a Multicast or Protocol Traffic Filter
(5300xl Switches Only)
Syntax: [no] filter
[multicast < mac- address >]
(5300xl only.) Specifies a multicast address. Inbound
traffic received (on any port) with this multicast
address will be filtered. (Default: Forward on all ports.)
The no form of the command deletes the multicast filter
for the < mac-address > multicast address and returns
the destination ports for that filter to the Forward action.
[< forward | drop > < port-list >]
Specifies whether the designated destination port(s)
should forward or drop the filtered traffic.
[protocol < ip | ipx | arp | dec-lat | appletalk | sna | netbeui >]
(5300xl only.) Specifies a protocol type. Traffic
received (on any port) with this protocol type will be
filtered. (Default: Forward on all ports.)
The no form of the command deletes the protocol filter
for the specified protocol and returns the destination
ports for that filter to the Forward action.
[< forward | drop > < port-list >]
Specifies whether the designated destination port(s)
should forward or drop the filtered traffic.
