Figure 6.4 Creating a Classifier—Defining Match Criteria
Each row of the Match Criteria table is a simple declaration. For each Criteria type to be defined, a value
must also be defined. Unless otherwise noted, the Classifier uses a case-insensitive comparison when
evaluating network packet values.
Create a classifier(s) by referring to
ranges for the criteria types.
Table 6.1 Classifier Types and Acceptable Value Ranges
Criteria Type
Source Mac Address
Dest[ination] Mac Address
Ethertype
VLAN ID
Priority
Protocol
ToS
Source IP Address
Dest[ination] IP Address
Table 6.1 which describes the meanings and acceptable values
Description
When evaluating the packet, the Classifier looks at the MAC address of the device
that sent the packet. The value is an arbitrary MAC address in the usual form.
Duplet-separating colons are inserted as you type.
MAC address of the device to which the packet is being sent. Arbitrary MAC
address in the usual form. Duplet-separating colons are inserted as you type.
Ethernet type values, as defined by RFC 1700. Select pre-defined values 0x800
(IPv4) or 0x400 (nixdorf), or select and enter a hex number (with prefix "0x") in the
text field to the right.
ID of the VLAN to/from which the packet is being sent/has been received. The
value is a number (only).
Relative priority value. The value is a number (only).
Ethernet protocol. Choose from one of the pre-defined protocol constants, or type
in the number (only!) of the desired protocol.
"Type of Service" identifier. The value is a number (only).
The IP address and subnet mask of the device where the packet emerged. The
values are expressed as two dot-separate IP addresses separated by a a single
forward-slash (/). For example: IPaddress/SubnetMaskAddress
IP address and subnet mask of the device to which the packet is being sent. The
value is expressed in the same manner as Source IP Address.
