Source MAC Address — Match the source MAC address from which
packets have arrived to this source address. In addition to the Source
MAC address, you can enter a
Wildcard Mask that specifies which
bits in the source address are used for matching and which bits are
ignored. A wildcard of 00:00:00:00:00:00 means the bits must be
matched exactly; ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff means the bits are irrelevant. Any
combination of 0s and ffs can be used.
–
Any — Check to indicate that the source address is not matched.
