4.2.9 User defined port-based exception filters
You can add specific filtering rules at the port level in addition to the built-in rules. Such rules
give you the capability of restricting access to a port, for specific reasons, such as a Denial of
Service (DoS) attack.
The filtering rules are set up in the same manner as filtering rules defined for a VNS — specify
an IP address and then either allow or deny traffic to that address. For more information, see
Section 7.6, “Configuring filtering rules for a VNS”, on page 153.
The rules defined for port exception filters are prepended to the normal set of restrictive
exception filters and have precedence over the system's normal protection enforcement.
