Note that 800 (IPv4) and 86DD (IPv6) are excluded.
A detailed listing of Ethernet protocol types can be found in RFC

1060. A few of the more common types include 0800 (IP), 0806

(ARP), 8137 (IPX).

LLC – Link Logical Control includes the following settings:

SSAP Address – Source Service Access Point address.

(Options: Any, Specific (0x00-0xff); Default: 0xff)

DSAP Address – Destination Service Access Point address.

(Options: Any, Specific (0x00-0xff); Default: 0xff)

Control – Control field may contain command, response, or

sequence information depending on whether the LLC frame type

is Unnumbered, Supervisory, or Information. (Options: Any,

Specific (0x00-0xff); Default: 0xff)

SNAP – SubNetwork Access Protocol can be distinguished by an

OUI and a Protocol ID. (Options for PID: Any, Specific (0x00-0xffff);

Default: Any)
If the OUI is hexadecimal 000000, the protocol ID is the Ethernet

type (EtherType) field value for the protocol running on top of SNAP.

If the OUI is that of a particular organization, the protocol ID is a

value assigned by that organization to the protocol running on top

of SNAP.
In other words, if value of the OUI field is 00-00-00, then value of

the PID will be etherType (0x0600-0xffff), and if value of the OUI is

other than 00-00-00, then valid value of the PID will be any value

from 0x0000 to 0xffff.

IPv4 – IPv4 frame type includes the following settings:

Protocol – IP protocol number. (Options: Any, UDP, TCP, or

Other (0-255))

Source IP – Source IP address. (Options: Any, Specific)
To configure a specific source IP address, enter both the address

and mask format. The address and mask must be in the format

x.y.z.w where x, y, z, and w are decimal numbers between 0

and 255. When the mask is converted to a 32-bit binary string

and read from left to right, all bits following the first zero must

also be zero

IP Fragment – Indicates whether or not fragmented packets

are accepted. (Options: Any, Yes, No; Default: Any)
Datagrams may be fragmented to ensure they can pass through

a network device which uses a maximum transfer unit smaller

than the original packet’s size.

DSCP – Diffserv Code Point value. (Options: Any, specific value

of 0-63, BE, CS1-CS7, EF or AF11-AF43, or Range;

Default: Any)
