Description This command identifies the type of filter and actual filter ID that must be provisioned on the SAP 
prior to the SAP being made a member of the egress-multicast-group. If the SAP does not have the 
specified filter applied, the SAP cannot be provisioned into the group. It is important that the egress 
filter applied to each SAP within the egress-multicast-group be the same since the batch replication 
process on an efficient multicast replication chain will apply the first SAP’s ACL decision to all other 
SAPs on the chain.
Once the SAP is made a member of the egress-multicast-group, the SAP’s egress filter cannot be 
changed on the SAP.
Changing the egress-filter parameters within the sap-common-requirements node automatically 
changes the egress filter applied to each member SAP. If the filter cannot be changed on the SAP due 
to resource constraints, the modification will fail.
The specified egress-filter does not contain an entry that is defined as an egress mirror-source. Once 
the filter is associated with the egress-multicast-group, attempting to define one of its entries as an 
egress mirror source will fail. 
The no form of the command removes the egress-filter removes the egress filter from each member 
SAP. The no egress-filter command specifies that an egress filter (IP or MAC)(IP, IPv6 or MAC) is 
not applied to a new member SAP within the egress-multicast-group. 
Default no filter. The egress filter ID must be defined with the associated ip or mac keyword. If an egress-
filter is not specified or the no egress-filter command is executed in the sap-common-requirements 
node, a new member SAP does not have an egress IP or MAC filter defined.
Parameters ip ip-filter-id — Specifies IP filter policy. The filter ID must already exist within the created IP 
filters.
Values 1 — 65535
ipv6 ipv6-filter-id — Specifies the IPv6 filter policy. The filter ID must already exist within the 
created IPv6 filters.
Values 1 — 65535
mac mac-filter-id — Specifies the MAC filter policy. The specified filter ID must already exist 
within the created MAC filters. The filter policy must already exist within the created MAC 
filters. 
Values 1 — 65535
