As far as I know wirefilter is to be placed into a VDE cable, i.e. in a 
dpipe. So, if you use something like

dpipe <vde_plug_connecting_to_vdeq> = <ssh_or_netcat_or_nothing> 
<remote_vde_plug>

to connect your local vdeq to some local or remote vde_switch, you 
should change it into

dpipe <vde_plug_connecting_to_vdeq> = wirefilter <wirefilter_options> = 
<ssh_or_netcat_or_nothing> <remote_vde_plug>

if you don't use a dpipe, e.g. if you connect vdeq to a vde_switch and 
that switch to a slirpvde, then I think there's no other way that 
running another switch, link the 2 switches using dpipe and wirefilter 
(using the syntax above), and connect one switch to vdeq and the other 
to slirpvde.
