Filter Policies
Router Configuration Guide 477
→ sdp — forwards the incoming traffic onto the specified VPLS SDP. Supported 
for ingress IPv4/IPv6 and MAC filter policies deployed in VPLS service. The 
SDP traffic is to egress on must be in the same VPLS service as the incoming 
interface. If the configured SDP is down, traffic is dropped.
• forward “isa action” — ISA processing actions allow operator to permit ingress 
traffic and send it for ISA processing as per specified isa action. The following isa 
actions are supported (see CLI section for command details):
→ gtp-local-breakout — forwards matching traffic to NAT instead of being GTP 
tunneled to the mobile operator’s PGW or GGSN. The action applies to GTP-
subscriber-hosts. If filter is deployed on other entities, action forward is applied. 
Supported for IPv4 ingress filter policies only. If ISAs performing NAT are 
down, traffic is dropped.
→ nat — forwards matching traffic for NAT. Supported for IPv4/IPv6 filter 
policies for L3 services in GRT or VPRN. If ISAs performing NAT are down, 
traffic is dropped. (see CLI for options) 
→ reassemble — forwards matching packets to the reassembly function. Supported 
for IPv4 ingress filter policies only. If ISAs performing reassemble are down, 
traffic is dropped.
→ tcp-mss-adjust — forwards matching packets (TCP Syn) to an ISA BB Group 
for MSS adjustment. In addition to the IP filter, the operator also needs to 
configure the mss-adjust-group command under the L3 service to specify the 
bb-group-id and the new segment-size. Requires FP-2 line cards and chassis 
mode D.
• http-redirect — implements HTTP redirect captive portal. HTTP GET is forwarded 
to CPM card for captive portal processing by router. See HTTP-redirect (Captive 
Portal) section for further details. 
In addition to the above actions:
• An operator can select a default-action for a filter policy. The default action is 
executed on packets subjected to an active filter when none of the filter’s active 
entries matches the packet. By default, filter policies have default action set to drop 
but operator can select a default action to be forward instead.
• An operator can override default action applied to packets matching a PBR/PBF 
entry when the PBR/PBF target is down using pbr-down-action-override. 
Supported options are to drop the packet, forward the packet, or apply the same 
action as configured for filter’s default-action. The override is supported for the 
following PBR/PBF actions: 
→ forward esi 
The following table defines default behavior for packets matching a PBR/PBF filter 
entry when a target is down:
