Figure 4-4: Filtering Functionality
The filtering definition process includes the following steps:
1
Defining list(s) of Filtering Rules. Each Filtering Rule defines a combination of
values for certain packet fields. Filtering Rules can be of 2 types: Layer 2
Filtering Rules (using fields of the Ethernet frame) and Layer 3/Layer 4
Filtering Rules (using fields of the IP and/or UDP/TCP headers).
2
Associating each Interface (From Network, From Wireless Link) with a set of
either Layer 2 or Layer 3/Layer 4 filters from the relevant Filtering Rules lists,
and defining the action to be taken upon receiving a packet that matches any
of the selected Filtering Rules: Allow (forward) or Deny (discard).
