    Description (
       "PreambleFilter allows the classification of packets using "
       "traffic-conditioning results (where the results are determined "
       "by a PreambleMarkerService and stored in a 'packet preamble'). "
       "This permits information about the treatment that a packet "
       "receives on an ingress interface to be communicated along with "
       "the packet to the egress interface. An instance of "
       "PreambleFilter selects packets based on a two-part string "
       "(type and value pair) identifying a specific entry in the "
       "preamble. The logic for this match is 'at least one.' That is, "
       "a packet with multiple entries/results in its preamble matches "
       "a filter if at least one of these matches the filter.")]

      [Description (
          "To foster interoperability, the basic format of the "
          "information captured by a PreambleMarker is specified. That "
          "information is contained in the FilterItemList property (an "
          "ordered, string array). Each entry in the array takes the "
          "form 'type,value'. When entries are added, they are "
          "appended to the end of the list. \n"
          "\n"
          "A limited set of standardized 'type's exist. They are: \n"
          "- ConformingFromMeter, NonConformingFromMeter and "
          "PartConformingFromMeter to convey metering results (where "
          "the 'value' is the name of the meter) \n"
          "- VlanId to describe the traffic's VLAN information (where "
          "the 'value' is the VLAN ID). \n"
          "An implementation is free to define and use other preamble "
          "'types'. \n"
          "\n"
          "Note that a wildcard value of \"any\" is allowed to "
          "indicate that the preamble entry matches for any 'value' of "
          "the specified 'type'. For example, using the wildcard, an "
          "administrator can define a filter to select all packets "
          "that were found to be conforming ('type' = "
          "\"ConformingFromMeter\") without having to name each meter "
          "individually."),
