Filter Configuration

Factory default filter rules have been configured in Menu 21 to filter traffic. Depending on the type of rule,
the parameters below the type will be different. Use the [SPACE BAR] to select the type of rule that you
wish to create in the Filter Type field and press [ENTER] to open the respective menu.
To speed up filtering, all rules in a filter set must be of the same class, i.e., protocol filters or generic filters.
The class of a filter set is determined by the first rule that you create. When applying the filter sets to a
port, separate menu fields are provided for protocol and device filter sets. If you include a protocol filter set
in a device filters field or vice versa, the Prestige will warn you and will not allow you to save.
