[Oisf-wg-ruleslanguage] Block metafile content

Just to be clear.. With reject rules there is never a guarantee they
will work.  It is essentially a race.  Also currently the code isn't
very intelligent for sending out resets.  For example if you have a
management interface and sniffing interface without an ip address
assigned the resets will always go out your management interface.  We
should add an option to send out resets via a l2 interface.  I will
add a feature request for this.

Regards,

Will
