- None (Default): Specifies that the system does not select a different node. Selecting None causes the system to send traffic to the node even if it is down, until the next health check is done. This is the default action.
- Reject: Specifies that the system sends an RST or ICMP message.

This setting will work for anything that access the or uses the Pool that you assign it to.
