Defining Address Filters

Use this window to define filters that are based on the Ethernet MAC Address of a
specific device. When enabled, these filters provide security by restricting LAN/WAN
access based on a device’s MAC Address. Address filters are based on either source,
destination or both source and destination MAC Addresses.
Device Name - Filter name can be up to 7 characters.
MAC Address - Enter the MAC Address of the LAN device that you are defining as
a filter. The system will use the defined MAC Address and the value in the Forward
Mode
to determine whether the packet should be passed or received.
To enable a filter return to the Enabled Filter Window ([E

SC

] from this window) and

select [C

TRL

A], select filter type (Custom, Protocol or Address) filter will be added to

the Enabled Filters window.

NOTE: Each filter, even if it is not enabled, will count toward the maximum
number of 500 filters.
