Applying Outbound Traffic Filters
This chapter shows how to use the Configuration Manager to configure outbound
traffic filters. To apply inbound traffic filters, refer to Chapter 6.
When you configure an outbound traffic filter, you specify a set of conditions and
an action that apply to a particular protocol running over a specific circuit or
interface. You implement protocol prioritization by applying an outbound filter
that includes a queue action (these are sometimes called priority filters). For
instructions on how to edit edit the protocol prioritization parameters, refer to
Chapter 2.
Working with Outbound Traffic Filters
To configure outbound traffic filters, you first display the Configuration Manager
Priority/Outbound Filters window, as described in the next section. From the
Priority/Outbound Filters window you can
• Create, copy, or edit a filter template, described in “Preparing Filter
Templates.”
• Apply a filter template to an interface, described in “Creating an Outbound
Filter.”
• Change an existing filter, described in “Editing an Outbound Filter.”
• Change the filtering order, described in “Changing Filter Precedence.”
Note: To complete the steps in this chapter, you must be familiar with
protocol-specific filtering criteria and actions. Refer to Chapter 4 for this
information.
