<p>A <em>filter</em> is a process which is applied to data that is
sent or received by the server. Data sent by clients to the server
is processed by <em>input filters</em> while data sent by the
server to the client is processed by <em>output filters</em>.
Multiple filters can be applied to the data, and the order
-of the filters can be explicitly specified. In addition,
-since filters apply to all content, they allow for flexible
-manipulation of data such as processing the output of
-CGI scripts for Server Side Includes.</p>
+of the filters can be explicitly specified.</p>
-<p>The set of filters which apply to data can be manipulated
+<p>Filters are used internally by Apache to perform functions such as
+chunking and byte-range request handling. In addition, modules can
+provide filters which are selectable using run-time configuration
+directives. The set of filters which apply to data can be manipulated
with the <code>SetInputFilter</code> and <code>SetOutputFilter</code>
directives.</p>
-<p>The only filter currently included with the Apache distribution
-is the <code>INCLUDE</code> filter which is provided by
-<a href="mod/mod_include.html">mod_include</a> to process output
-for Server Side Includes. There is also an experimental module
-called <a href="mod/mod_ext_filter.html">mod_ext_filter</a>
