Using Source-Port Filters

10-4
case, you can prevent the traffic of one subnet from being routed to another
subnet on the same port by configuring the port or trunk as both the source
and destination for traffic to drop.

Using Source-Port Filters

This feature is available only on the Series 2600, 260 0-PWR, 2500, and 2800
Switches.

Operating Rules for Source-Port Filters

You can configure one source-port filter for each physical port or port
trunk on the switch.
Each source-port filter you configure is composed of:
One source port or port trunk (trk1, trk2, ...trk6)
•
• A set of destination ports and/or port trunks that includes all LAN
ports and port trunks on the switch
• An action for each destination port or port trunk
When you create a source-port filter, the switch automatically sets the
filter to forward traffic from the designated source to all destinations for
which you do not specifically configure a "drop" action. Thus, it is not
necessary to configure a source-port filter for traffic you want the switch
to forward unless the filter was previously configured to drop the desired
traffic.
