You can also use either drop or discard. This will cause the current packet or connection to be discarded, but i don't think it will send a reset. Where as reject causes the connection to be rejected, returning a reset as appropriate for the protocol.

 

 

You can find more detail on in the wiki irule section under GLOBAL commands.
