John, Going over your excellent tutorial, the distinction between
action and operation isn’t clear... specifically, the paragraph
“Although this gives us a list of actions we can perform on a packet
and a set of argument to give the action so we can use them it does
not supply the operations performed on the packet” is a bit vague.
