On the other hand, Frame Relay was originally intended for interactive data applications, which tend to be bursty and are delay tolerant since loss or errored frames can be detected and resent.

    “filter.” A filter is simply as set of rules that determine whether a packet should be passed or discarded as it crosses an interface. An interface is any port that carries IP traffic. On the IAD, it can be on of the following: Ethernet port, PPP connection, ATM PVC, or FR DLCI.
  • Page 228 Figure C-1. IAD Block Diagram With IP Filtering Shown IP Filtering can be applied to either WAN or LAN ports; these are the only two that can carry IP traffic. For connections to the Internet, the WAN port is the best choice. All examples provided below assume the WAN port is the selected port.
  • Page 229: Ip Packet Filtering Syntax And Grammar

    IP Packet Filtering Syntax and Grammar Each packet is compared to all the rules in the list for the interface and direction, with the last matching rule being applied (exception: see “quick” command below). Therefore, the most restrictive rules (block) should be placed first in the list, with pass rules following.
  • Page 230: Filter Rules

  • Page 232 The special protocol keyword tcp/udp may be used to match either a TCP or a UDP packet, and has been added as a convenience to save duplication of otherwise-identical rules. The from and to keywords are used to match against IP addresses (and optionally port numbers).

    Examples The quick option is good for rules such as block in quick from any to any with ipopts which will match any packet with a non-standard header length (IP options present) and abort further processing of later rules, recording a match and also that the packet should be blocked.

    WAN Unnumbered IP Feature The WAN Unnumbered IP feature allows the IP address and mask assigned via a WAN port to be transferred to a LAN port. The WAN port will not have an IP address. When the IP address and mask are assigned to the LAN port, if enabled, the DHCP server is started on the LAN port.
