13. In this step, you define what 8950 AAA will do following execution of this Log Rule.

By default, 8950 AAA examines the Log Rules in the Active Rule Set starting with the
first rule and works down through the last rule until it finds a Log Rule that matches all
of its criteria (Log Area, Expressions, Log Level, etc.) After a matching rule has been
executed, and the log messages have been sent to the appropriate Log Channels, no
additional Log Rules are evaluated.

For example if the first Log Rule matches all requests for all Log Areas with no log
message expressions, then it is always executed and any additional Log Rules are
never evaluated.

This default behavior can be changed by selecting the Continue Processing Log Rules
After a Match on this Rule option. If this option is selected, then, 8950 AAA will
evaluate the next Active Log Rule after this Log Rule is executed.
