Datto Networking Appliance (DNA): Web traffic filters
In networking, filters are types of software that can analyze and classify network traffic by its detected content. They make routing and traffic shaping changes to the traffic based on a set of predefined rules. The Datto Networking Appliance and legacy Open Mesh devices use the following filter definitions to classify traffic:
