IP FILTER SECURITY
IP Filter Security is a feature that filters IP traffic on port interfaces based
on manually configured entries in the IP Filter table, or allowed IP address
assignment through DHCP. IP Filter Security can be used to prevent traffic
attacks caused when a host tries to use the IP address of a neighbor to
access the network.
