>Description:
"sysctl -d net.inet.icmp.icmplim_output" says:
net.inet.icmp.icmplim_output: Enable rate limiting of ICMP responses
In fact, this setting does not control rate limiting of ICMP responses.
Instead, it controls whether kernel writes log messages
about this limiting or not.
>How-To-Repeat:
See above.
>Fix:
Change wording in src/sys/netinet/ip_icmp.c for this setting.
