Basic Filtering Operations A module that provides basic conditions and actions for packet filtering. &LEGALNOTICE; 0063 Deferred Informational Standards XEP-0062 Not yet assigned Robert Norris rob@cataclysm.cx rob@cataclysm.cx 0.2 2003-09-30 psa At the request of the author, changed the status of this document to Deferred pending development of an implementation; also changed the type to Informational. 0.1 2002-12-05 rn Initial version.

This document defines a module for &xep0062; that provides some basic conditions and actions to perform common packet filtering tasks.

This module operates in the "http://jabber.org/protocol/filter/basic" namespace.

This module defines the fullowing conditions:

<message/> - true if the packet is a <message/> packet.
<presence/> - true if the packet is a <presence/> packet.
<iq/> - true if the packet is a <iq/> packet. If this element contains CDATA, then it must match the namespace of the first element inside the packet (typically <query/>) in order to be true.
<to/> - true when the CDATA of this element matches the "to" attribute of the packet.
<from/> - true when the CDATA of this element matches the "from" attribute of the packet.
<type/> - true when the CDATA of this element matches the "type" attribute of the packet.

This module defines the fullowing actions:

<drop/> - drops the packet
<bounce/> - bounces the packet with the error specified in the "code" attribute of this element.
<redirect/> - redirects the packet to the JID specified in the CDATA of this element.
<copy/> - sends a copy of the packet to the JID specified in the CDATA of this element, while giving the original packet to the user.
