4.2 Filters for MAC addresses
The filter table for MAC addresses is used to display and edit filters. Each row
represents one filter. Filters specify the way in which data packets are sent.
They are set automatically by the device (learned status) or manually. Data
packets whose destination address is entered in the table are sent from the
receiving port to the ports marked in the table. Data packets whose
destination address is not in the table are sent from the receiving port to all
other ports. The following conditions are possible:
learned: The filter was created automatically by the device.
invalid: With this status you delete a manually created filter.
permanent: The filter is stored permanently in the device or on the URL

GMRP are deleted by a restart.
igmp: The filter was created by IGMP Snooping.
