Stateless Firewall Filter Terms

All stateless firewall filters contain one or more terms, and each term consists of two components—match conditions and actions. The match conditions define the values or fields that the packet must contain to be considered a match. If a packet is a match, the corresponding action is taken. By default, a packet that does not match a firewall filter is discarded.

Note: A firewall filter with a large number of terms can adversely affect both the configuration commit time and the performance of the Routing Engine.
