icmp: type-#69



I noticed (among the more common icmp: echo request) these odd icmp
types. The external net, my firewall is connected to, is plagued by
smurf-attacks from various sources. So I have tcpdump watching.

Of what I gather, this icmp-type should not exist. Can anyone shed
some light on this:
