1280.0. "Multicast filtering" by 45266::DAVIESJ () Thu Mar 17 1994 05:02

    I am trying to set up a lat multicast filter across a decbridge 510 so
    that inbound packets from one port only are filtered. When I apply the
    filter it only seems to work globally - I cant get it to work on a
    single port. The bridge reports that "that function is not supported"
    Is this a limitation of the bridge or is there another way to achive
    this.
    
                         A
    		-------------------
    			|
    		     bridge
    			|
    		------------------------
                          B
    I would like to apply a filter on port A so that Terminal servers on B
    cannot see any services on LAN A. No filter on port B so that users on
    A can see services on B. Groups are the obvious answer but for other
    reasons the customer doesnt want to use that method. 
	
    	Any help appreciated
