Using Address Groups and Port Groups in a Packet Filter

Adding an Address to an Address Group
If the address was never learned or has been aged, the port ID associated
with the address is set to “unknown.”
Broadcast and other multicast addresses are assumed to be in all groups.
Because the address table can hold up to 8K address entries, the total
number of addresses that can be configured into address groups is at
most 8K.
What Is a Port
Group?
Port groups are conceptually similar to address groups. A port group is a list
of ports. Because the LANplex 2500 system has only 2 bridge ports (16
Ethernet ports and 2 FDDI), a group can have no more than 18 ports. You
can configure up to 32 port groups per LANplex 2500 system.
When a port is added to a group, the port is inserted into a port table on
the associated system. Each port table entry contains a 32-bit
group mask.
As with address group masks, each bit in the mask specifies
one
of the 32
