The correct answers are B and D. A terminal rule is specifically designed to stop further rule evaluation. Juniper states that the IDP rule-matching algorithm normally checks traffic against all matching rules in the rulebase, but when a terminal rule matches the source, destination, zones, and application, IDP does not continue to check subsequent rules for that same traffic. Juniper also warns that traffic matching a terminal rule is not compared to later rules even if it does not match the attack object inside that terminal rule.

Option D is also correct because the Ignore Connection action stops scanning traffic for the rest of the connection if an attack match is found. Juniper defines Ignore Connection as disabling the rulebase for that specific connection after a match. Option A is wrong because a close action closes the connection by sending reset behavior, but it is not the rule-processing control mechanism being tested. Option C is a trap: the exempt rulebase is used to suppress known false positives after an IPS rule match, but the two direct mechanisms that end IDP rule processing are terminal rule matching and ignore connection.
