Statement introduced in Release 8.5 of JUNOS software.

Description

Verify that the TCP sequence number in a TCP segment with the RST bit enabled matches the previous sequence number for a packet in that session or is the next higher number incrementally. If the sequence number does not match either of these expected numbers, the device drops the packet and sends the host a TCP ACK message with the correct sequence number. By default, this check is disabled.
