CONTENTFILTER CFILTER 

Considerations 

 

The value of the parameter can be changed without stopping HP NonStop SSL using the SSLCOM command 
SET CONTENTFILTER file. 

 

The following example shows the syntax of the filter rules. This example will only allow messages starting with 
"<A" or "<B" and ending with ">" to pass the filter.
