+ - match_hashed
+ Match values using a hash function of the hostname.
+
- match_regex
Match values by their identifier based on regular expressions.
- target_replace
Replace parts of an identifier using regular expressions.
+ - target_scale
+ Scale (multiply) values by an arbitrary value.
+
- target_set
Set (overwrite) entire parts of an identifier.
