Rule Config Screen 

Use the Rule Config screen (Figure 4.38) to establish Service Aware 
parameters. To establish a rule, select the desired rule configuration options, 
provide the appropriate filter information where required, and press the “Esc” 
key.

Figure 4.38

Rule Config Screen 

The paragraphs below describe the rule configuration parameters and their 
options.

Service

Selects the service to which the rule applies. Select from a pull-down menu 
that lists available services.

VPI

Selects the VPI to which the rule applies. 

VCI

Selects the VCI to which the rule applies.

Filter By VPI/VCI

Enables or disables filtering of the IP traffic in accordance with the specified 
VPI/VCI. 

NOTICE: 

To use this filter, you must specify both the Service and DLCI 
parameters in the rule configuration.

IP Address

Establishes the IP Address by which the rule will filter IP traffic (if enabled).

IP Mask

Represents a range of IP Addresses defined so that only machines with IP 
Addresses within the range defined by the mask are allowed to access an 
Internet service. To mask a portion of the IP Address, replace it with the wild 
card character “0” (zero). (For example, 192.44.0.0 represents every computer 
on the Internet with an IP Address beginning with 192.44.)

Filter By IP Address

Enables or disables filtering of the IP traffic by the IP Address specified in 
the IP Address or IP Mask field.
