NOTE: The ingress (NIC) filter is applied to live traffic only, e.i. the traffic sent to the monitoring interfaces of an Allegro. When replaying data from the ring buffer, loading a pcap or using the remote traffic capture feature, filtering is not used and/or applied.
 
NOTE: The data recorded to/stored in the Packet Ring buffer, is of course also affected by the Ingress filter. Additional ring buffer capture rules may be configured under "Generic - Packet Ring Buffer", further explained in our wiki here [[Packet ring buffer#Packet%20ring%20buffer%20snapshot%20length%20filter|https://allegro-packets.com/wiki/Packet_ring_buffer#Packet_ring_buffer_snapshot_length_filter]]
