Important Considerations

When you assign a packet filter to one or more ports, you must assign
a processing path. The path (transmit all, transmit multicast, receive
all, receive multicast, or receive internal) of a port can have only one
packet filter assigned to it; however, you can assign a single packet
filter to multiple paths and ports.

If you try to assign a filter to a port that already has a filter assigned,
the system displays a warning message and the assignment fails.

After you assign the filter, ports and paths are removed from the list of
possible values (which are listed in the Options table).

Possible values for filters (n) depend on the number of created or
loaded filters on the system.

Possible values for bridge ports (n) depend on the number of existing
bridge ports on the system.
