eth-route
Command
eth-route
Arguments
[all | bcast | icmp | tcp | udp] [ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [port
Security
Level
3 (config)
Device Type
Ethernet
Default
[blank]
Description
Sets a specific rule for incoming Ethernet traffic. Allowing control of which services, IP addresses and
ports can be accessed on the public (WAN) network by Ethernet clients on the private network.
Through the rules established by this command and the eth-route-default setting a device
firewall can be constructed to limit unauthorized use of the wireless interface on the network it is
enabled for.
all|icmp|tcp|udp
Selects the protocol for the rule.
ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Defines the public network address the rule applies to.
The xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx must represent a valid IP address
where xxx is an integer between 0 and 255. The resultant IP
address must not be 0.0.0.0.
port
Defines the port number for the rule.
The port number must be an integer.
accept|drop
Defines if the rule allows or blocks traffic.
The following provides details for each of the parameters:
all
Allows all traffic to be affected by the rule.
bcast
The rule impacts only broadcast traffic.
icmp
The rule impacts only ICMP traffic
tcp
The rule impacts only TCP/IP traffic.
udp
The rule impacts only UDP traffic.
accept
This option will allow traffic matching the rules conditions to be
forwarded to the wireless interface.
drop
This option will stop traffic matching the rules conditions from being
forwarded to the wireless interface.
relay
May only be used if the selected protocol is bcast, assigning the
action to relay will cause UDP traffic with destination address
255.255.255.255
received on the specified port to be relayed to the
wireless interface.
If selected, the IP address [IP Address:Port#] should not be
included in the rule.
Multiple rules can be established to support firewall requirements. The rules set by the eth-route
command take precedence over the eth-route-default setting.
It is not required to include both the IP address and the port number when constructing a rule, if one is
omitted the rule assumes it applies to all instances of the missing parameter. In the case of an IP
address missing, all port accesses matching the listed value will be affected, regardless of the IP
