Creating an AppleTalk Name-Binding Protocol (NBP) Filter

Web Agent
Procedure
Document No. 650-100-700, Issue 1
The NBP performs a conversion from named AppleTalk entities to their
AppleTalk protocol addresses. Multiple names can exist for the same entity
(alias). NBP also performs:
Name registration
Name deletion
Name lookup
Name confirmation
NBP allows you to bind a name to the internal storage address for your
entity and register this mapping so that other entities can look it up. You can
display NBP names to users and use addresses internally to locate entities.
When you register your entity's name and address pair, NBP validates its
uniqueness.
An NBP Filter prevents hosts on one or more interfaces from accessing
hosts or services beyond that interface.
You can create an NBP Filter using either the Web Agent or the CLI.
To create an NBP Filter using the Web Agent:
1. Select NBP Filter from the Routing > AppleTalk > Configuration
group on the Web Agent window. The AppleTalk NBP Filter dialog
box opens (Figure 19-13).
