The traffic is coming into the box and not out.  But
reading the links above, if the traffic is coming into the box and
that the traffic is actually a PONG (and not a PING), then does
that means it's actually responding to a Ping originating from
within the network?   Or did I misunderstand the last link?  I
had trouble understanding it and only kinda guessed the meaning.

give the related box a serious check.  First thought was a back door but
then the question is, "Why be so obvious?"  How long a period of time
did this traffic involve?  Is it still going on?


It's still going on.  And now, I've got another different Icmp response
with a payload of :-

000 : 37 FF 01 00 00 00 0B B8 00 03 D5 EB 4E EA B8 2D   7...........N..-
010 : 0E 74 6F 70 2D 36 30 30 31 2D 34 32 30 30 30 00   .top-6001-42000.

030 : 00 00                                             ..

Does anyone recognize this kind of command?

Thanks
