Putting the parts together
When you display a filter set, its filters are displayed as rows in a table:
The table’s columns correspond to each filter’s attributes:
• #: The filter’s priority in the set. Filter number 1, with the highest priority, is first in the table.
• Fwd: Shows whether the filter forwards (Yes) a packet or discards (No) it when there’s a match.
• Src-IP: The packet source IP address to match.
• Src-Mask: The packet source subnet mask to match.
• Dst-IP: The packet destination IP address to match.
• Dst-Mask: The packet destination IP address to match.
• Protocol: The protocol to match. This can be entered as a number (see the table below) or as TCP or
UDP if those protocols are used.
• Src Port: The source port to match. This is the port on the sending host that originated the packet.
• Dst Port: The destination port to match. This is the port on the receiving host for which the packet is
intended.
• NC: Indicates No Compare, where specified.
Filtering example #1
Returning to our filtering rule example from above (see page 165 ), look at how a rule is translated into a fil-
ter. Star t with the rule, then fill in the filter’s attributes:
• The rule you want to implement as a filter is:
“Block all Telnet attempts that originate from the remote host 199.211.211.17.”
