That is why I asked the list and was a follow up question if somebody
replied it is "normal traffic to find the path to the destination or
proxies in between".

Besides some basic IDS rules, I'm not blocking ICMP traffic.  What's being
blocked are all ports that are not explicitly allowed outbound.  In this

allowed outbound.
