 Hi, I have some logs on my hands and im not quite sure exactly what its
trying to tell me:

Jan 11 03:58:59 snarfer snort[2478]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] ICMP
Unreachable IP short header (0 bytes)
Jan 11 05:49:24 snarfer last message repeated 1 time
Jan 11 06:27:10 snarfer snort[2478]: [ID 702911 daemon.error] ICMP
Unreachable IP short header (0 bytes)


I understand what the protocols are, but that error tells me little, is this
a packet it recieved? did it get unreachable trying to contact someone? If
someone could explain briefly whats happening I would appreciate it alot,
thank you
