Configuration Guide Access Control List Configuration
In the figure above, the meaning of each letter and the value of offset are shown below:
As shown in the above table, the offset of each field is it offset in the SNAP+tag 802.3 data frame. In
the user custom access control list, the user can use two parameters, the rule mask and offset, to
abstract any byte from the first 80 bytes of the data frame, and then compare it with the user defined
rule to filter the matched data frame for corresponding processing. The user defined rule can be some
fixed attributes of the data. For example, the user wants to filter all the TCP messages by defining the
rule as “06”, rule mask as “FF” and offset as 35. Here, the rule mask and offset work together to
abstract the contents of the TCP protocol ID field in the received data frame, and compare it with the
rule to filter all TCP messages.
