The module-specific filter page allows setting allow/deny filters for traffic processing in specific modules. Traffic removed by the filter will not be available in statistics for the specific module. Other modules and the packet ring buffer are not affected. To filter live traffic to all modules and the packet ring buffer, use an Ingress filter instead.

supported module-specific filters
Filter Description
IP Connections This filter prevents connection statistics from being generated and stored for all entries matching an IP Filter. This filter can also be configured from the IP module's Connections tab or the Connections module.

Filters

IP Filter

The IP Filter specifies a list IP addresses and subnets to match against. It can either be configured as a deny list (default) or an allow list.

  • /32 subnet mask: 192.168.1.1/32 means the filter will deny/allow IP 192.168.1.1
  • /24 subnet mask: 192.168.1.0/24 means the filter will deny/allow IP range 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.255
  • /16 subnet mask: 192.168.0.0/16 means the filter will deny/allow IP range 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
