The bridge supplements basic filtering functionality by providing the ability
to specify user-defined fields within each of the supported encapsulation
formats. It also provides the ability to specify lists which contain a collection
of value ranges to be filtered.
The Traffic Priority configuration parameters should be left set to Normal,
the default, when using encapsulation filtering.
