Most likely, these are being generated by SmartDefense if you enabled max ping size under IP and ICMP options. The default value for this is 64 bytes and the default action is log.
I would not change the max ping size to anything larger than 64 bytes unless you're seeing some sort of problem with an application that is using icmp (and then I'd probably blame the application ;)) . You could certainly set the tracking to none if you're not concerned with them, but honestly, if you're getting enough of them that they are impacting the effectivness of your logs you probably want to try and figure out where they are coming from and take appropriate action. -Steve > Dear All > > I'm sure I have seen this posted already but can't find anything at the > moment.
