@note When making an API call, you may pass WafAction

data as a hash:

    {
      type: "BLOCK", # required, accepts BLOCK, ALLOW, COUNT
    }

@!attribute [rw] type

Specifies how you want AWS WAF to respond to requests that match the
settings in a `Rule`. Valid settings include the following:

* `ALLOW`\: AWS WAF allows requests

* `BLOCK`\: AWS WAF blocks requests

* `COUNT`\: AWS WAF increments a counter of the requests that match
  all of the conditions in the rule. AWS WAF then continues to
  inspect the web request based on the remaining rules in the web
  ACL. You can't specify `COUNT` for the default action for a
  `WebACL`.
