resemble wildcard patterns as used by UNIX shells. Autonomous
system numbers match themselves, <cf/*/ matches any (even empty)
- sequence of arbitrary AS numbers. For example:
- <tt>|4 3 2 1| &tilde; |? 4 3 *|</tt> is true, but
- <tt>|4 3 2 1| &tilde; |? 4 5 *|</tt> is false.
- There is also old syntax that uses / instead of | and ? instead of *.
