Types and Codes


Type 3
Codes :

- Network Unreachable  (Router does not have route and can not send)
- Host Unreachable     (Router knows about network but cant send packet to the host for any reason. ej: L2 problem with host)
- Protocol Unreachable (Packet are delivered but some L4 Problem, does not know Protocol)
- Port Unreachable     (Port Problem, no open service on that port)
- Fragmentation        (MTU Problems / Fragmentation needed but DF Set)
- Source Routing       (IP Source Routing problem / no ip source-route)
- Obsolete Code        (Obsolete Code)
- Obsolete Code        (Obsolete Code)
- Obsolete Code        (Obsolete Code)
- Admin Prohibited     (Access-List or Wirewall Host Was prohibited)
10
- Admin Prohibited     (Access-List or Wirewall Network Was Prohibited)
11
- QoS, ToS and IP Precedence Problems
12
- QoS, ToS and IP Precedence Problems
13
- Admin Prohibited     (Access-List or Wirewall General Prohibited msg)
14
- QoS, ToS and IP Precedence Problems
15
- QoS, ToS and IP Precedence Problems

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Code 4: Fragmentation

- Route-map Configuration
route-map clear-df permit 36
match ip address 136
set ip df 0
 
- Access list 2.2.2.2 is the offending website and 3.3.3.0 is the remote site subnet.
access-list 136 permit tcp host 2.2.2.2 3.3.3.0 0.0.0.255
 
- Appply on interface:
ip policy route-map clear-df

Note:
Configure bit to “0” (zero) to allow fragmentation.
DF=1= Don’t allow fragmentation

ICMP Redirect (Type 5)

Type 5, Codes 0 - 3 :
 
- 0 Network 
- Host
- Service / Network 
- Service / Host


Questions router asks before sending a redirect :
- Is route outthe same interface ?
 
- Are ip redirectsenabled on that interface ?  
- Is source IP from same network as the better next hop ?

Won`t send redirect for a source-routed packet. 





Wireshark Online Capture here :

We can see in debug:

R2#debug ip icmp
ICMP packet debugging is on
*Feb 28 08:50:53.750: ICMP: redirect sent to 10.123.0.1 for dest 4.4.4.4, use gw 10.123.0.3

Note: Use no ip redirects command on Interface to turn off ICMP Redirects.
