The loopback bus supports 2 wildcard character sequences that can be used in Channel Filters to match multiple sending topics. Wildcard characters are not applied to sent topics and are treated as character literals.  The loopback binding implementation is sensitive to the following wildcards when nv.sma.cleanchannelfilter=true and will preserve these characters rather than replace them with an '_':
