The consensus is that this is best done at the router/switch
or with a firewall. Olle Bjorck offered the following idea:
In sysconfig (under inet) raise icmp_rejectcodemask to 256
inet:
icmp_rejectcodemask=256
Thanks to Jeff Foster, Steve VanDevender Greg Rudd, Bobby Cheema,
Tim Cutts and, of course, Olle Bjorck.
