Configuring Dial-Out Connections 8-13
Setting Filters
This value is used only when the maximum number of ports is greater than one. The
default high-water mark is zero.
To set the high-water mark in bytes for a location, use the following command:
Command> set location Locname high_water Number
Setting Filters
You can attach input and output filters to each location. Filters must be defined in the
filter table before they can be added to the location table. For more information about
filters, see Chapter 9, “Configuring Filters.” When a filter is changed, all ports in use by
the location must be reset to have the changes take effect.
Note – If a matching filter name is not found in the filter table, this command is not
effective and all traffic is permitted.
Input Filters
Input filters cause all packets received from the interface to be evaluated against the
filter rule set. Only packets allowed by the filter are accepted.
To set an input filter for a location, use the following command:
Command> set location Locname ifilter Filtername
Output Filters
Output filters cause all packets going out to the interface to be evaluated against the
filter rule set. Only packets allowed by the filter are passed out to the interface.
To set an output filter for a location, use the following command:
Command> set location Locname ofilter Filtername
