+=head1 NWFILTER BINDING COMMANDS

+The following commands manipulate network filter bindings. Network filter
+bindings track the association between a network port and a network
+filter. Generally the bindings are managed automatically by the hypervisor
+drivers when adding/removing NICs on a guest.
+
+If an admin is creating/deleting TAP devices for non-guest usage,
+however, the network filter binding commands provide a way to make use
+of the network filters directly.
