2801.0. "Filtering DECnet application packets?" by STRWRS::KOCH_P (It never hurts to ask...) Tue Sep 26 1995 18:11

    
    I have a customer who would like to to protocol specific filtering of
    DECnet application packets. That is, they'd like to construct filters
    which could block out file transfers, virtual terminal, phone, etc. Is
    it possible to construct filters (by hand) which can get this far down
    into a DECnet packet?

    	I can't speak for the other products (check the DECNIS and
    COMMON_BROUTERS notesfiles), but the DECbrouter90 can filter DECnet IV
    packets, when it's routing DECnet, by source/destination network or
    host number, as well as by Object # (Mail, FAL, CTERM, etc), username, 
    password, or UIC in DECnet IV Connect Initiate packets. Check out the 
    9.14 DECbrouter90 Config & Reference manual Volume 2, pages 4-10 to 
    4-14 for more information. 
    
     	BTW, since the DECbrouter runs cisco IOS code, the above is true
    for *any* cisco router which can route DECnet.
