I just want to add the default filter in my sidebar. When looking at the official Magento demo, you can see this on the left sidebar (Shopping Options.) I assume this is available out of the box to enable since the Magento demo shouldn't be using community modules (I think.)
Goto Admin panel
Catalog->Manage Categories
Click on your category then goto Display Setting Tab
Set Is Anchor -> yes
now you'll set filter options in left side bar.
If you not get the filter,
in admin panel category edit check Custom design Tab
set page layout as 2columns-left.phmtl or 3columns.phtml
or check your catalog.xml file in that make sure the category view page template is 2columns-left.phmtl or 3columns.phtml

It sounds like this is probably layered navigation that you refer to. You can enable this on a per category basis by setting Is Anchor to Yes on the Display Settings tab as explained here.
