Configuring Management Access Filters
Creating and implementing management access filters is optional. Management access 
filters control all traffic going in to the CSM, including all routing protocols. They apply to 
packets from all ports. The filters can be used to restrict management of the 7705 SAR 
router by other nodes outside either specific (sub)networks or through designated ports. By 
default, there are no filters associated with security options. The management access filter 
and entries must be explicitly created on each router. These filters apply to the management 
Ethernet port.
The 7705 SAR exits the filter when the first match is found and executes the actions 
according to the specified action. For this reason, entries must be sequenced correctly from 
most to least explicit.
An entry may not have any match criteria defined (in which case, everything matches) but 
must have at least the keyword 
action to be considered complete. Entries without the 
action keyword are considered incomplete and will be rendered inactive.
Use the following CLI commands to configure a management access filter. This example 
only accepts packets matching the criteria specified in entries 1 and 2. Non-matching 
packets are denied.
