Creating MAC Filters
Use the MAC Filtering Configuration page to associate a MAC address with a VLAN and set of source ports and
destination ports. Any packet with a static MAC address in a specific VLAN is admitted only if the ingress port
is included in the set of source ports; otherwise the packet is dropped. If admitted, the packet is forwarded to
all the ports in the destination list.
To access the MAC Filter Configuration page, click LAN > L2 Features > Filters > MAC Filter Configuration in
the navigation tree.

Field Description
MAC Filter If no MAC filters are configured on the system, Create Filter is the only item in
the drop-down menu. If one or more MAC filters exist, the list also contains
the MAC address and associated VLAN ID of a configured filter.
MAC Address The MAC address of the filter in the format 00:01:1A:B2:53:4D. You can only
change this field when you have selected the "Create Filter" option.
Note: You cannot define filters for the following MAC addresses:
• 00:00:00:00:00:00
• 01:80:C2:00:00:00 to 01:80:C2:00:00:0F
• 01:80:C2:00:00:20 to 01:80:C2:00:00:21
• FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
VLAN ID The VLAN ID used with the MAC address to fully identify packets you want
filtered. You can only change this field when you have selected the "Create
Filter" option.
Source Port Members Select the ports you want included in the inbound filter. If a packet with the
MAC address and VLAN ID you selected is received on a port that is not in the
list, it will be dropped.
Destination Port Members Select the ports you want to include in the outbound filter. Packets with the
MAC address and VLAN ID you selected will only be transmitted out of ports
that are in the list.
