+This is used to send back an error packet in response to the matched
+packet: otherwise it is equivalent to 
+.B DROP
+so it is a terminating TARGET, ending rule traversal.
+This target is only valid in the
+.BR INPUT ,
+.B FORWARD
+and
+.B OUTPUT
+chains, and user-defined chains which are only called from those
+chains.  The following option controls the nature of the error packet
+returned:
+.TP
+\fB\-\-reject\-with\fP \fItype\fP
+The type given can be
+\fBicmp6\-no\-route\fP,
+\fBno\-route\fP,
+\fBicmp6\-adm\-prohibited\fP,
+\fBadm\-prohibited\fP,
+\fBicmp6\-addr\-unreachable\fP,
+\fBaddr\-unreach\fP,
+\fBicmp6\-port\-unreachable\fP or
+\fBport\-unreach\fP
+which return the appropriate ICMPv6 error message (\fBport\-unreach\fP is
+the default). Finally, the option
+\fBtcp\-reset\fP
+can be used on rules which only match the TCP protocol: this causes a
+TCP RST packet to be sent back.  This is mainly useful for blocking 
+.I ident
+(113/tcp) probes which frequently occur when sending mail to broken mail
+hosts (which won't accept your mail otherwise).
+\fBtcp\-reset\fP
+can only be used with kernel versions 2.6.14 or later.
