Similar to the IP Filtering function in the previous section,
BRIDGE FILTERING
also allows you to define up
to 16 sequential filters, and each filter can be set to examine, or filter, both source and destination data packets
when the ADSL Bridge is in
Bridge Enable
mode.
4.9.1 Current Bridge Packet Filtering Table
The
Current Bridge Packet Filtering Table
displays the
Filter ID
,
Source/Destination MAC
, as well as the action
taken when the filter conditions are matched or not matched. When you click
Add
, a new Bridge packet filter is
created.

In the
Add Filter
section, you can enter values for each of the following items:

The ADSL Bridge examines each entering data packet with the above parameters to determine if they match
