not realy, i want to descripe exactly that what will happen if the
maximum-prefix number is reached on a real router: the session will
be rejected.

not sure if your proposal is more understandable. i would read it as
"if FILTER (AS1) is matched action (maximum-prefix) will be set (to 1000)".

how is that:

% import: from AS1 
%         action proto-status=shutdown
%         accept maximum-prefix>=1000

thanks
