VLAN Filter Entry
Within a VLAN filter policy, configure filter entries that contain criteria against which 
ingress traffic on a ring port is matched. The action specified in the entry determines how the 
packets are handled, either dropped or forwarded. Forwarded packets are sent to the other ring 
port or the v-port, depending on the destination. 
• Enter a filter entry ID. The system does not dynamically assign a value.
• Assign an action, either drop or forward.
• Specify matching criteria (see VLAN Entry Matching Criteria).
Use the following CLI syntax to configure a VLAN filter entry:
CLI Syntax: configure>filter>vlan-filter filter-id 
entry entry-id [create]
description description-string 
action {drop | forward} 
exit 
Example: configure>filter>vlan-filter 2 
configure>filter>vlan-filter# entry 2 create
configure>filter>vlan-filter>entry# description “drop-
104” 
configure>filter>vlan-filter>entry# action drop 
configure>filter>vlan-filter>entry# exit 
The following example displays a VLAN filter entry configuration.
