Name – this is a 12 character (maximum), alphanumeric, user-
defined name, used to identify the filter.

Direction – this defines the direction of the packet relative to the
Interface parameter below.

State – this is used to define the routing decision applied to the
packet. The three routing decisions are described:

1. forward – this allows the routing of the packet, if it has met

the criteria of the corresponding filter.

2. drop this drops (doesn’t allow routing for) a specific packet

that has met the criteria of the corresponding filter.

3. disable this does not apply the IP filter.

Interface – this applies the filter to a specific interface, LAN or
one of the three WANs.

Protocol Type – this is a protocol identifier, as assigned by the
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). The values of this
identifier are described in RFC-1700. This router supports the
following:

4. protocol type = 1, this is Internet Control Message (ICMP),

defined in RFC 792.

5. protocol type = 6, this is Transmission Control (TCP), defined

in RFC 793.

6. protocol type = 17, this is User Datagram (UDP), defined in

RFC 798.

Src IP – this is the source address in the IP header of this packet.

Src Netmask – this mask is bit-wise AND’d with the source IP
address, and compared to the IP address of the incoming interface,
for which the packet arrived.
