Unless of course I block ICMP for the purposes of denying traceroute but still allow DF/etc. Then it's not "broken" as you say. -- David Temkin On Wed, 23 Jul 2003, Kevin Oberman wrote:

Plenty of networks block ICMP at the border and could very well be using 1918 addressing in between and you'd have no idea.And the network is broken. People persist in blocking ICMP and then complain when things don't work right. Even if you explain why blocking ICMP is breaking something, they say "ICMP is evil and we have to block it". OK. they are broken and when things don't work, they need to tell their customers that they are choosing to run a network that does not work correctly. (Not that I expect anyone to do this.) I don't see anything "tough" about this call.
