    Note

    Simulated Blocking is not supported separately for the traffic directions. If one is configured (enabled/disabled), the other is also configured similarly.

    • To disable Simulated Blocking device wide, select Simulation disabled for the entire device.

    The device level settings override the interface level settings, that is, you cannot configure Simulated Blocking at the interface level if it is configured at the device level.
