Please note that the IPX Filter column will only appear on DI-1162M models. Each decision on handling packets
is described below:

1. Disable – This does not apply a default, routing decision.

2. Forward – This allows the routing of a packet, even though it has not met the criteria of the corresponding

filter.

3. Drop – This drops (doesn’t allow routing for) a packet that has not met the criteria for the corresponding

filter.

Layer 2 Filter

The Layer 2 Filter submenu contains a protocol independent (data-link layer) filter. Foreknowledge of the
specific protocol used on the interface (LAN or WANs) is needed to make effective use of this filter.
