Complete the following steps to configure a Port filter. To accept a default
value, press the Enter key.

At the LCM prompt:

1. Type

filters add

2. Enter the port number.

1 is the default. If the filter is for port 1, you do not need to enter
anything; if the filter is for another port, enter that number.

3. Select the filter type.

Entry is the default. If the filter will be an entry filter, you do not need
to enter anything; if the filter will be an exit filter, type

exit.

4. Select whether the filter should be a real filter or a pseudo filter.

True is the default; meaning the filter will be a pseudo filter. You do
not need to enter anything if the filter is to be pseudo. If you want the
filter to be a real filter, type

False.

5. Select whether the filter will use a range of source MAC addresses.

NA is the default; meaning the filter will not use a source range. You
do not need to enter anything unless you are using a source range. (If
you are not using a source range, go to Step 8.)

If you are using a source range, type either:

True – Filter the packet if the source MAC address is within the range.

False – Filter the packet if the source MAC address is outside the
range.

6. Enter the first MAC address in the source range.

7. Enter the last MAC address in the source range.

8. Enter the source range MAC address mask.

ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff is the default address mask. If ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff is the mask
you want to use, you do not need to enter anything. If you want to use
a different mask, enter that value.
