Description
For redundant Ethernet interfaces,
enable the filtering of MAC source addresses, which blocks all incoming
packets to that interface. To allow the interface to receive packets
from specific MAC addresses, include the source-address-filter
statement.
If the remote Ethernet card is changed, the interface cannot receive packets from the new card because it has a different MAC address.
By default, source address filtering is disabled.
