I am using a LM3S6965.  The only filter I've ever come across in the micro 
datasheet and driverlib datasheet is the MAC filter, which will filter only 
based on MAC (I believe this is a fairly standard feature).

IIRC and you mentioned Luminary, there is a hardware filter so that unwanted 
ports don't even find their way to the stack. This may be very important in big 
LANs, specialy with lots of windows...

If you manage to set this up, please send feedback.
