Filtering Configuration


* applicable only to T3 Offload capable HBAs

Filtering options can be set only when t3_tom (offload driver) is not loaded.

This module lists the various parameters which can be set while determining filtering options for a system IP. You can set the maximum number of filters and also add/delete filters. A filter with default values (the Action field set to pass;the Protocol field set to any) is created at the time of configuring the filtering module. To remove the default filter, enter 0 in the Set Maximum Filters field and click on Set Filters.The fields lfName and FilterId are mandatory. The Action field is set to pass and the Protocol field is set to any by default. Other possible values for the Protocol field are tcp, udp and frag. The Priority field can be used to determine the priority of a filter when Vlan ids are same. Insert at position features allows user to add a filter at a specified position.

Note:Results for actions like adding a new filter or setting maximum filters make some time to reflect. Highlight the system item in the tree menu on the left, and click "Refresh", to refresh data from the system, in case the updated settings are not being shown.
