Logging for rejected TCP connections

Hi,
I am trying to reject TCP connections from users based on conn_cur and conn_rate, I am using tcp-request connection reject to do that. But the problem is I am not getting any logs which shows these rejections. I have read somewhere where people suggested to use tcp-request content reject instead. My question is that whether this is going to impact my protection functionality? What I want to do eventually is maintain a list of BAD ips without hampering with my protection functionality.

Here is my configuration file:

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in anticipation.

global
log 127.0.0.1 local0
maxconn 4096

Abuse protection

tcp-request connection reject if { src_conn_rate(abusers) ge 20 }

Stick Table.

stick-table type ip size 200k expire 30s store conn_rate(3s),conn_cur

In the above configuration, I have commented out option dontlognull, and added option logasap

Don’t use “tcp-request connection reject” if you want to log it.
