Appendix: Ethernet Type Codes


Table 101 lists known Ethernet type codes. You can use these type codes in transparent bridging and source-route bridging access lists for filtering frames by protocol type. For configuration information on filtering by protocol type, refer to the following two sections of the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide:

"Filtering Transparently Bridged Packets" in the "Configuring Transparent Bridging" chapter

"Securing the SRB Network" in the "Configuring Source-Route Bridging" chapter

.
