Guidelines for Applying Simple Filters

Statement Hierarchy for Applying Simple Filters

You can apply a simple filter to the IPv4 ingress traffic at a logical interface by including the simple-filter input simple-filter-name statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name unit unit-number family inet] hierarchy level.

Restrictions for Applying Simple Filters

The following restrictions pertain to applying simple filters:

  • Simple filters are not supported on Modular Port Concentrator (MPC) interfaces, including Enhanced Queuing MPC interfaces.

  • Simple filters are not supported for interfaces in an aggregated-Ethernet bundle.

  • You can apply simple filters to family inet traffic only. No other protocol family is supported.

  • You can apply simple filters to ingress traffic only. Egress traffic is not supported.

  • You can apply only a single simple filter to a supported logical interface. Input lists are not supported.

Platform-Specific Behavior
