How to Configure IP Routing Information Filters
Before you begin, make sure that filtering support is enabled for IP in
NIASCFG under the TCP/IP Protocol menu. Otherwise, filtering will not
work.
To configure IP incoming (or outgoing) RIP filters, complete the following
steps:
1
Load FILTCFG, then select the following parameter path:
Select Configure TCP/IP Filters > Incoming RIP Filters (or Outgoing
RIP Filters )
2
Select Status and toggle the choice to read Enabled or Disabled .
Any configured filters immediately become active (enabled) or inactive
(disabled).
3
Select Action and toggle the choice to permit or deny the routes in the
filter list.
This specifies the action taken when an incoming (or outgoing) RIP
packet matches a filter on the filter list.
If you select to permit the routes, the matching RIP routes are accepted
(or advertised) by the router. If you select to deny the routes, the matching
RIP routes are not accepted (or advertised) by the router.
4
Select Filters .
This lists the incoming (or outgoing) RIP filters that are permitted or
denied, according to the Action parameter setting.
5
Modify the route list.
You can select a filter from the list and press Enter to modify the filter or
Del to remove it. Press Ins to add a new filter.
If you are modifying an existing filter or adding a new filter, modify the
following parameters from the Define Filter menu:
Route to Network or Host —Specify All Routes , Host , or Network
as the type of route to be filtered.
IP Address of Network/Host —Enter a 4-byte IP address in dotted
decimal notation. You do not need to enter this if you selected All
Routes for the Route to Network/Hosts parameter.
