The following example shows the use of both accept and reject in a
packet filter. This packet filter was created for a network that is running
both Phase I and Phase II AppleTalk software. The goal of the filter is to
eliminate the AppleTalk traffic.

# Get the type field.
# Make a copy.
# EtherTalk Phase I type.
# Test if the packet type is
# equal to the AppleTalk type,
# reject the packet and end.
# Otherwise,
# Largest 802.3 packet size
# If this value is less than the
# value in the packet's
# type/length field, then this
# is an Ethernet frame, so
# accept the packet if it is not
# 802.3, otherwise...
# get the SNAP OUI and Ethertype
# value to compare.
# If not equal, then forward the
# packet, otherwise drop it.
