Reports the cumulative total number of packets this specific Virtual System's policy explicitly rejected, dropped with a notification back to the sender. Tracked per tenant, a sudden rise isolated to one virtual system points at that specific customer's environment being targeted or misconfigured, rather than a chassis-wide event affecting every tenant equally. Example: vsxCountersRejectedTotal spiking for only one of ten tenants sharing a chassis narrows an investigation to that customer's own exposed services rather than the shared infrastructure.
