IPX Packet Filter Rule Examples
This section briefly describes IPX packet filtering options, and
provides rule examples for each IPX packet filtering capability.
This section includes the following topics:
• Source and Destination Network Filtering
• Source and Destination Host Filtering
• Source and Destination Socket Number Filtering
• RIP Packet Filtering
• SAP Packet Filtering
• IPX Call Filtering
• Generic IPX Filtering
Source and Destination Network Filtering
IPX network numbers must be specified as an network number
no greater than 8-digits in hexadecimal format. The following
rule example rejects IPX packets with a source address of
00-03-42-BF:
IPX:
010 REJECT src-net = 00-03-42-BF;
Source and Destination Host Filtering
Host addresses must consist of the 8-digit network number,
followed by the four digit node number in hexadecimal format.
The following rule example accepts IPX packets with a
destination address of 04-0B-43-AA:
IPX:
010 ACCEPT dest-host = 04-0B-43-AA;
Source and Destination Socket Number Filtering
Sockets numbers represent communications interfaces that let
an application access a network protocol by "opening a socket"
and declaring a destination. Sockets are useful because they
provide a simple way to direct an application onto the network
(TCP/IP protocol).
