Use the page to define a new protocol filter. You can work from a predefined template or make a copy of an existing protocol filter to use as the basis for the new filter.
Steps
-
Enter a unique Filter name. The name must be between 1 and 50 characters long, and cannot include any of the following characters:
* < > ` ' { } ~ ! $ % & @ # " [ ] | \ ^ + = ? / ; : . , Filter names can include spaces, dashes, and apostrophes.
-
Enter a short Description of the filter. This description appears next to the filter name in the Protocol Filters section of the Filters page, and should
explain the filter’s purpose.
The character restrictions that apply to filter names also apply to descriptions, with 4 exceptions; periods (.), commas (.), and brackets ([ ]) can be included in
descriptions.

Select an entry from the drop-down list to determine whether to use a template (see Category and protocol filter templates) or make a copy of an existing filter as a basis
for the new filter.
