Subject: Re: [WhatsUp Forum] Change ICMP packet size

We are an ISP and I don't want to block ALL ICMP and allow certain
devices...as that would cripple some of our customers' services and our
troubleshooting abilities.

That is why I am using policy based routing to filter out those specific
packets. You did give me a good idea to play with my route-maps and I am
testing now.

Thanks,
Eric
