Chapter 13 - AppleTalk Filtering

lteq, le, <=, or =< These are allowable ways of writing a “less than or
equal to” operator which will match the packet/information if its value is
less than or equal to the value specified in the option expression.

gt or > These are allowable ways of writing a “greater than” operator
which will match the packet/information if its value is greater than the
value specified in the option expression.

gteq, ge, >=, or => These are allowable ways of writing a “greater than
or equal to” operator which will match the packet/information if its value
is greater than or equal to the value specified in the option expression.

ne, <>, or != These are allowable ways of writing an “inequality” oper-
ator which will match if the value in the packet/information is not equal
to the value specified in the option expression.

The options available for AppleTalk filter rules allow rules to be more
narrowly specified to exclude packets or other information based on a number
of additional factors.
