Try:
match u16 0x1a00 0xfff0
Mask is first applied to the value in the packet, then it's tested
against your (0x1a00) value
Can you please explain this further?
You are saying that its ORed with the value? Or is it ANDed? Or maybe
XORed? What operation are they applying to the value? Working from what
I have done with other bit masking operations, I am assuming that the
mask is ANDed with the value in the packet. Then I would assume you OR
the check with the resulting value. But I am not sure.
I would expect the mask to be applied to the value. It doesn't make
sense to apply it to the check, because then you would simply match the
highest possible value of the check+mask.
