Setting up End-User Access Creating a Network Filter 5 Creating a Network Filter The Active Network Access Filters table on the Network Filters page displays currently defined filters. These filters control if access to the NSS from specified hosts is granted or denied on a per-protocol basis. Each device in your network is assigned a fixed 48-bit MAC address and changeable 32-bit IP address. When you define a filter, it grants or denies access through the specified protocol from the specified IP/MAC address or range of IP addresses. NOTE When you define a new filter, any existing connections that would normally be denied by this rule remain intact. These connections are denied during the next attempt to connect to the NSS. To add a network filter: STEP 1 From the Manager Menu, click Access Network. The Network Filters page appears. STEP 2 From the New Network Access Filter table, type the IP/MAC address to which you are applying the filter, in the IP/MAC address field. You can also enter addresses for the following: • IP Address Range: Type the range according to the following format: first address-last address. (Where the first IP address in the range is entered first, followed by a hyphen, and then the last IP address in the range.)
