The host 199.211.211.17 is the source of the Telnet packets you want to block, while the destination
address is any IP address. How these IP addresses are masked determines what the final match will be,
although the mask is not displayed in the table that displays the filter sets (you set it when you create
the filter). In fact, since the mask for the destination IP address is 0.0.0.0, the address for Destination
IP address could have been anything. The mask for Source IP address must be 255.255.255.255 since
an exact match is desired.

Source IP Address = 199.211.211.17

Source IP address mask = 255.255.255.255

Destination IP Address = 0.0.0.0

Destination IP address mask = 0.0.0.0

Destination Por t = 23
