ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

200

Specify the type of filter to be used.

allow—Allows any packet that matches the filter specification to pass through the router.

deny—Drops packets that matches the filter specification.

nodial—Only drops packets that would make the destination interface dial. Otherwise, the packet is
passed on. Use filters to keep hosts outside of your organization from initiating calls on your phone
line and increasing your phone bills.

[-f {inbound | outbound}]

Specify whether the filter applies to incoming or outgoing packets. If neither parameter is specified,
then the filter applies to both types of packets.

inbound—incoming packets.

outbound—outgoing packets.

[-o {before | after} existing_name]

Change the order of filters in the filter list. If nothing is specified then the filter is inserted at the end of
the list.

before—insert the filter before existing_name.
after—insert the filter after existing_name.
existing_name—Enter a filter name already in the RIP filter list.

[-h {hopcount}]—Specify a hops limit:

Places a limit on the number of IPX router hops visible to the Router. This can be used on large
networks as a security feature to limit access from branch offices to a small area on the your local
network. The sap command shows server names and the number of hops required to get to a
particular server. Note the server name and the number of hops. See the first example.

ripfilter delete name

Deletes the specified filter.

name—A 1 to 6 character ASCII identifier chosen by the user to easily reference filter expressions.
Each filter expression must have a unique name.

ripfilter {enable | disable}

Enables or disables RIP packet filtering. RIP packet filtering is disabled when the unit starts and must be
explicitly enabled.

ripfilter flush

Deletes all RIP packet filters.

ripfilter move name [{before | after} existing_name]

Enables you to change the order of RIP packet filters in the filter list. If no [before | after...] clause is
given, then the entry is placed last in the list.

name—The name whose position you want changed in the filter list.

before—Insert the filter name before existing_name. If before or after are not specified then the
filter is inserted at the end of the list.
