A filter for blocking a specific MAC address
This configuration example shows you how to use a Generic Filter to block a specific
MAC address of the LAN.
Before you Begin
Before you configure the filter, you need to know the MAC address of the client first.
The MAC address can be provided by the NICs. If there is the LAN packet passing
through the P-660 you can identify the uninteresting MAC address from the P-660's
LAN packet trace. Please have a look at the following example to know the trace of
the LAN packets.
ras> sys trcp channel enet0 bothway
ras> sys trcp sw on
Now a client on the LAN is trying to ping Prestige………
ras> sys trcp sw off
ras> sys trcp disp
