xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx or xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx. It is used to hide some information of the MAC address. ‘1’,
means needed and ‘0’ means ignored. For example, MAC address e0:3b:4a:c2:ca:e2 and MAC
mask ff:ff:ff:00:00:00, that is whatever MAC address while matches e0:3b:4a:XX:XX:XX, will be
accepted.

Tag VLAN ID: enter the tag VLAN ID, 0-4094, used to determine the VLAN the frame belongs to.
Rate Type: You can choose Limited or Guaranteed.
