Filtering Frames Based on Port Numbers

You can filter incoming frames (packets) based on TCP and UDP port numbers in either of the following ways:

  • Dynamically, using dynamic port filtering

  • Statically, using the TCPIP FILTERFRAMES command. If the FILTERFRAMES command is "enabled" for a port or range of ports, then those ports will always be closed and no traffic can reach the MCP environment. If the FILTERFRAMES command is "disabled" for a port or range of ports (the default), then dynamic port filtering can be used as described in the following subsection.
