action { alert | reject | pass | drop }
alert – traffic is allowed 
and the IPS/IDS service 
generates a message;
reject – traffic is 
prohibited. If it is TCP 
traffic, a TCP-RESET 
packet is sent to the 
sender and recipient, for 
the rest of the traffic 
type, an ICMP-ERROR 
packet is sent. IPS/IDS 
service generates a 
message;
pass – traffic transfer is 
permitted;
drop – traffic is 
prohibited and the IPS/
IDS service generates a 
message.
6 Set name of IP protocol for which the 
rule should work.
esr(config-ips-category-rule)# 
protocol <PROTOCOL>
<PROTOCOL> – take values: 
any/ip/icmp/http/tcp/udp
When specifying the 'any' value, 
the rule will work for any 
protocols
7 Set sender IP addresses for which the 
rule should work.
esr(config-ips-category-rule)# 
source-address 
{ip <ADDR> | ip-prefix <ADDR/LEN> 
| 
object-group <OBJ_GR_NAME> | 
policy-object-group 
{ protect | external } | any }
<ADDR> – sender IP address, 
defined as AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD 
where each part takes values of 
[0..255];
<ADDR/LEN> – sender IP 
subnet, defined as 
AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD/EE where 
each part AAA-DDD takes 
values of [0..255] and LEN 
takes values of [1..32].
<OBJ_GR_NAME> – name of IP 
addresses profile that contains

string of up to 31 characters.
protect – sets sender
