Configuring Bridge Filter Applications
Bridge Filter Applications determine how filters will be used at the interface. To
review existing applications, press
[H] at the Filter Definitions and Applications Con-
figuration Menu (or [A], [A], [E], [F], [H] from the Main Menu). To configure an appli-
cation, press [I] at the Filter Definitions and Applications Configuration Menu. When
prompted, enter:
●
Bridge Port Number : 0–95 . (The default is 0 .) (This number simply identifies the
interface.)
●
Filter Type : 4 = Generic 5 = MAC (Default) 6 = LLC2 SAP
7 = Protocol 8 = Bridged native NetBIOS.
A MAC filter will be applied to incoming frames whether or not
bridging is enabled (in Bridge Node Defaults). Other filter types will
be applied only if bridging is enabled.
●
Direction : i (inbound) or o (outbound). (The default is o .)
●
Any other requested information, referring to Table 13-7 (on page 13-11).

Up to 100 filters can be configured, displayed over ten "pages" (screens).
[PgDn]
and
[PgUp]
can be used to move through the screens. (At any screen, pressing
[F3]
will save
the configuration for all ten screens and exit the display. Pressing
[Esc]
at any screen
will abandon the changes for all ten screens and exit.)
When finished configuring filter definitions and applications, you must perform an
on-line update to make the changes effective immediately. Press
[J]
at the Filter Def-
initions and Applications Configuration Menu. The changes will be sent to the
software running on the RLPs.
