DESCRIPTION§

Removes words in payload. This element is not intended for performance as it loops through a list of wordss. Use CTXIDSMatcher for an efficient version.

• CLOSECONNECTION — Boolean that can be set to true if the connection must be closed when an insult is found. In this case, the content of the page is replaced by an error message telling the user that the web page has been blocked because it contains insults then the TCP connection is closed. Default value: false.
• REPLACE — Boolean if true, replace the insult instead of removing the bytes. Default to true.
