I have noticed that blocked outgoing connections with logreject are not logged in \Log_outgoing.asp

I tested this using the page https://www.dnsleaktest.com/ (23.239.16.110)

When I use the logdrop rule, the blocked connection is logged:
Code:
iptables -I FORWARD -d 23.239.16.110 -j logdrop



However, if logreject is used, the blocked connection is missing from the outgoing log:
Code:
iptables -I FORWARD -d 23.239.16.110 -j logreject


Tests were made on Netgear XR500 "r58819 std (12/13/24)" and Linksys WRT54GL "r59093 std (01/10/25)" and the same result.

Did I miss something?

What traffic?

Note that only TCP Protocol can be rejected.

It (logreject) was the same test as with logdrop, which means it used the TCP protocol. As I mentioned, I was testing with a internet browser on the page https://www.dnsleaktest.com.
