and the outgoing is the firewall's rejections

I'm no expert, but I believe the firewall can be set to utterly
ignore things it blocks rather than sending a rejection. Generally
this is more useful for things connected to the internet at large
since you'll just get random probes rather than torrential attacks
once they figure out there is something there they can try to break
into.

Very much like the difference between ignoring spam and replying
to it :-).

I know even less than you about this.

It's very possible that I'm mis-understanding or improperly extrapolating something someone else said earlier in this thread.
