Filtering 9-1
This chapter discusses static IP and MAC address port filtering.
9.1 Introduction to Filtering
Port filtering means sifting traffic from one or all ports to one or all ports based on the source and/or destination
MAC addresses and VLAN group (ID).
9.1.1 Note About Configuration
The following rules apply when configuring filtering.
• The rule applies to traffic flowing in both directions if both a source and destination are specified.
• The rule applies to traffic flowing in one direction if either a source or destination is specified.
• No any-to-any rules are allowed. That is, you cannot select Ignore for both the source and destination ports.
• No blank rules are allowed. If you do not select Ignore, you must set the related fields.
• You can forward a MAC address to one port or all ports (All Ports) but not two different ports.
