Figure 5-96: Advanced Setup, Security - Incoming IP filtering Setup window – Current Configuration
5.6.5.2 MAC Filtering
Selection of Advanced Setup submenu Security, item MAC Filtering displays a MAC filtering Setup window, Figure 5-97, showing the current MAC
Filtering configuration: Policy and rules.
A short on line help text is provided in the configuration window.
This window allows changing the policy of rules applied: Forwarded/Blocked
If current configuration of policy is forward, all MAC layer frames are forwarded except those matching with any of the specified rules in the MAC
filtering rules table.
If current configuration of policy is blocked, all MAC layer frames are blocked except those matching with any of the specified rules in the MAC
filtering rules table.
The policy can be changed by selecting the change and afterwards use the Change policy button. The policy table will change the value to the
opposite value (from forward to blocked and vice-versa), Figure 5-98.
Changing from one policy to another of an interface will cause all defined rules for that interface to be removed automatically; therefore rules for
the new policy have to be created.
To insert and configure a new MAC filtering rule entry use the Add Button, Figure 115; a new window is displayed, Figure 5-99.
This window allows the configuration of MAC Filtering rule. A short on line help text is provided in the configuration window. Figure 5-99 provides
an outgoing filter configuration example

STEP 1. Select the Protocol to use from the Protocol Selection combo box;
STEP 2.

STEP 3. Type in the Source MAC address;
STEP 4.

STEP 5. Select the WAN interfaces from the selection combo box;

figuration, Figure 5-100.
