Configuring Reject Actions

You can configure reject actions for JUNOS filter policy rules. The reject action causes the router to discard a packet and send an ICMP destination unreachable message.

The type of action that you can create depends on the type of policy rule. See Policy Information Model.

Use the following configuration statements to configure reject actions:

policies group name list name rule name reject name {
message-type message-type ;
description description ;
}

To configure a reject action:

  1. From configuration mode, enter the reject action configuration. For example, in this procedure, rejectAction is the name of the reject action.
  2. (Optional) Configure the type of ICMP destination unreachable message sent to the client.
  3. (Optional) Enter a description for the reject action.
  4. (Optional) Verify the reject action configuration.
