Description

The firewall log only detects blocked or passed traffic, and IIRC always has. In 2.1x versions, the filtering options at the top offer "Reject" as an option. Because nothing is considered rejected there, that option does nothing.

Whether to fix to change it to differentiate between block and reject in diag_logs_filter.php, or just leave the status quo as is and remove the "reject" checkbox so people don't expect that to work, I'm not sure. If it's easy to make reject show up correctly, that'd be ideal. If that opens a can of worms, just removing the "reject" checkbox would suffice. AFAIR, we've never referenced reject vs. block being differentiated in the firewall logs, and it's never worked, hence removal not so bad.
