I did traceroute 217.20.241.75 and got several of the following on ttyv0, which displays kernel and other messages: icmp redirect from 213.232.120.198: 217.20.241.75 => 213.232.120.194 I'm guessing that the router at 213.232.120.198 is redirecting ICMP packets, but why is this information showing up on the tty that handles internal messages?
