Hardware Filtering of Traffic Based on the Transmission Layer Protocol (TCP and UDP port)

    1. Create a QoS policy, if you have not already done so. See Creating a QoS Policy.

    2. Create a rule in that policy, if you have not already done so. See Creating a Rule for a QoS Policy.

    3. Click [ConfigBtn] on the home page.

    4. Click the Quality of Service link in the Policy Configuration section.

    5. Click the name of the policy in which you want to edit a rule in the Current QoS policies drop-down list.

    6. Click Select.

    7. Click the name of the hardware filtering rule you want to edit in the drop-down list box.

    8. Click the Edit button.

    9. Enter the source TCP or UDP port identifier in the SPort/Mask edit box.

    10. Enter the destination TCP or UDP port identifier in the DPort/Mask edit box.

    11. Click the Inbound radio button, if you want traffic inbound to the IP Switch to be affected by the rule.

    12. Click the Outbound radio button, if you want traffic outbound from the IP Switch to be affected by the rule.

    13. (Optional) Click on the interface you want to be affected by the rule in the Interface drop-down list.

    14. (Optional) Enter the IP transmission layer protocol to be used (TCP or UDP) in the IPproto field.

    15. Click on the deny filter in the Filter drop-down list.

    16. Click [ApplyBtn].

    17. (Optional) Repeat steps 7-16 swapping the source and destination port identifiers to apply the rule to traffic in the reverse direction

    18. (Optional) Repeat steps 7-17 for each source-destination port identifier for which you would like to perform a hardware filtering operation.
