Prestige 100L IDSL Router Chapter 6 Filter Configuration This chapter shows you how to create and apply filter(s). 6.1 About Filtering Your Prestige uses filters to decide whether to allow passage of a data packet and/or to make a call. There are two types of filter applications: data filtering and call filtering. Filters are subdivided into device and protocol filters, which are discussed later. Data filtering screens the data to determine if the packet should be allowed to pass.
Prestige 100L IDSL Router 6.1.1 The Filter Structure of the Prestige A filter set consists of one or more filter rules. Usually, you would group related rules, e.g., all the rules for NetBIOS, into a single set and give it a descriptive name. The Prestige allows you to configure up to twelve filter sets with six rules in each set, for a total of 72 filter rules in the system. You cannot mix device filter rules and protocol filter rules within the same set.
