Source route bridge supports the following two types of filters:
Protocol ID filters filter out packets of certain protocol types received by the source route bridge. Protocol ID filtering can help control traffic, balance bridge loads, and increase security.
Ring number filters filter out packets received from specific rings in a token ring network. This lets you limit the traffic that crosses a bridge from a source. Use ring number filters to balance the load among your network bridges and to increase network security.
