Description This command creates or edits a filter entry. Multiple entries can be created using unique entry-id
numbers within the filter. The 7705 SAR implementation exits the filter on the first match found and
executes the actions in accordance with the accompanying action command. For this reason, entries
must be sequenced correctly, from most to least explicit.
IPv4 filter entries can specify one or more matching criteria, with one caveat. In order to support the
maximum 256 entries for IPv4 filters, any entry that uses source port (src-port) and/or destination
port (dst-port) ranges (lt, gt, or range keywords) as match criteria must be within the first 64
entries. See the
An entry might not have any match criteria defined (in which case, everything matches) but must have
at least the keyword action for it to be considered complete. Entries without the action keyword are
considered incomplete and are rendered inactive.
The no form of the command removes the specified entry from the filter. Entries removed from the
filter are immediately removed from all entities to which that filter is applied.
