Question: statistics column rejected vs. filtered

[Maria Matejka]

Hello Maiyun,

the filtered column says how many routes were filtered out by your
own configured filters. The rejected column says how many routes were
outright rejected by the protocol itself, e.g. with BGP or Pipe it
rejects its own routes, while other protocols needs to get the routes
exported back to them to work properly.

I hope this helps.  
Have a nice day!

Maria
