The name of a filter_set object can be hierarchical:

A hierarchical filter_set name is a sequence of filter_set names and AS Numbers separated by colons. At least one component of the name must be an actual filter_set name (i.e. start with "fltr-"). All the set name components of a hierarchical filter-name have to be filter_set names.

A short description related to the object's purpose.

  filter( [$filter] )
Accessor to the filter attribute. Accepts an optional filter value, always return the current filter.
