The OSRevision and Protocol Support node at
tributes have values that are interpreted as version
numbers. A version number is a series of non
-
negative decimal numbers separated by period (.)
characters. When comparing version numbers, the following rules are used:

The leftmost numbers in the series
are most significant, so "1.0" is greater than "0.1".

Leading zeroes on the numbers are disregarded, so "003" is equal to "3".

Two adjacent period characters are interpreted as if they delimited the number zero, so "1.0.3" is
equal to "1..3".

A beginning p
eriod character is interpreted as if preceded by a zero, so ".9" is equal to "0.9".

Trailing zero numbers are disregarded, so "1.0.0" is equal to "1"
