Quite out of the context of the connectivity issue you're trying to  
troubleshoot, it's in fact extremely desirable to have your 6509 (and  
all your routers, for that matter) unpingable from the outside your  
own network.  The BCP is to use iACLs, CoPP, et. al. to keep out all  
unsolicited traffic headed to, as opposed to through (like traceroute,  
pinging customer hosts, etc.), your network infrastructure.

Sorry, sometimes I mistake your existential crises for technical
insights.
