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 destina-
tion address is not in the table are sent from the receiving port to all other
ports. The following status settings 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
(see on page
gmrp: the filter was created by GMRP.
gmrp/permanent: GMRP added further port markings to the filter after
it was created by the administrator. The port markings added by the
GMRP are deleted by a restart .
igmp: the filter was created by IGMP.
In the "Create" dialog (see buttons below), you can create new filters.
