source-address

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

IP source address field, which is the address of the source node sending the packet. You cannot specify the source-address and address match conditions in the same term.

For IPv4, the source-address field is 32 bits in length. The filter description syntax supports either a mask value that can be noncontiguous, such as 10.0.0.10/255.0.0.255, or prefix notation such as 10.0.0.0/8. Simple filters do not support noncontiguous mask values.

For IPv6, the source-address field is 128 bits in length. The filter description syntax supports the text representations for IPv6 addresses that are described in RFC 2373, IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture.
