 Filter configuration
 --------------------
 
-###
+All <filter> elements have in common that they must carry a "type"
+attribute whose value is one of the supported ones, listed in the
+schema file and discussed below.  In additional, <filters>s occurring
+the <filters> section must have an "id" attribute, and those occurring
+within a route must have either a "refid" attribute referencing a
+previously defined filter or contain its own configuration
+information.
+
+In general, each filter recognises different configuration elements
+within its element, as each filter has different functionality.  These
+are as follows:
+
+<filter type="frontend_net">
+  <threads>10</threads>
+  <port>@:9000</port>
