Just an appendum, but this is what I'm seeing in /var/log/messages right now:

Jul 28 00:22:37 io kernel: Limiting icmp unreach response from 6255 to 200 
packets/sec
Jul 28 00:22:38 io kernel: Limiting icmp unreach response from 6515 to 200 
packets/sec
Jul 28 00:22:39 io kernel: Limiting icmp unreach response from 6646 to 200 
packets/sec
^C

And its been going on for several hours now ... :(

Two part question here ...

first part ... is there a way of just disabling icmp by setting a sysctl, so that a server just doesn't respond to them?

second part ... is there a way of telling a cisco switch to drop all icmp packets, preferrably to all but an exception list, but to everywhere works as well ...

I'm running a Cisco 2950-24 ...

thanks ...
