Update MCR Packet Filters

View as Markdown

Updates the specified packet filter for the MCR specified by the productUid.

The MCR packet filter list is a named list of IP network addresses. Create a packet filter list to match and filter routes based on the route’s source address and ports, the destination address and ports, and the IP protocol.

  • When no packet filter is configured, all traffic is permitted.

  • When a packet filter is configured, any traffic not permitted by the filter is denied.

  • Up to 20 packet filter lists can be configured on each MCR.

  • Each list can contain up to 50 entries.

  • A filter can be applied multiple times on the same MCR.

The parameters have these values:

  • Source IP Address (required)

    • Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 packets.

  • Destination IP Address (required)

    • Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 packet.

  • IP Protocol

    • A decimal integer between 0 and 255 taken from the Industry standard list of protocols.

  • Source Port/Port Range (for TCP and UDP protocols).

    • Range to be expressed as nn-nn. For example, 25-32.

  • Destination Port/Port Range (for TCP and UDP protocols).

    • Range to be expressed as nn-nn. For example, 25-32.

  • Description for each entry (optional).
