IP Protocol Filter
The AWK-3131A’s IP protocol filter is a policy-based filter that can allow or filter out IP-based packets with
specified IP protocol and source/destination IP addresses.
The AWK-3131A provides 8 entities for setting IP protocol and source/destination IP addresses in your filtering
policy. Four IP protocols are available: All, ICMP, TCP, and UDP. You must specify either the Source IP or the
Destination IP. By combining IP addresses and netmasks, you can specify a single IP address or a range of IP
addresses to accept or drop. For example, “IP address 192.168.1.1 and netmask 255.255.255.255” refers to
the sole IP address 192.168.1.1. “IP address 192.168.1.1 and netmask 255.255.255.0” refers to the range of
IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.255. Remember to check the Active check box for each entity to
activate the setting.
