Filtering AppleTalk Zones and Networks
Defining Zone Filters
Zone filtering allows you to define access for a network and its nodes by entering single permit or deny CLI
commands, instead of defining an access list for each node independently.
By eliminating the need to enter separate numbers for each device or network segment, zone filters improve
overall system administration of an AppleTalk network. For example, if a new device such as a server or laser
printer is added to an existing zone, all users in that zone automatically have access to that device without any
additional configuration.
Additionally, zone filters help eliminate unauthorized access to devices within restricted zones. As new devices
are added to secured zones, information on those devices is protected automatically.
