Description
I am sorry if I report intended behaviour. But I don't understand why rules of type reject only are allowed with TCP. I would expect that a reject rule would mean 'reject where possible, else drop it.' For example, with UDP rejections pfsense can send ICMP port/host unreachable for UDP too? And even for ICMP I would expect this -- if I send a ping from a LAN host but it is rejected, why not return 'icmp host unreachable' or 'administratively prohibited?'
Thanks for either fixing or explaining. :)
