This indication is harmless and caused by a new kernel configuration option :
ICMP_BANDLIM, which limits the number of ICMP messages processed by the machine

(which I've set at home at a very low value, as the upstream traffic there is metered and
costs quite a lot if the quota is expended)

Suddenly I got this message in my messagelogs on two of our machines

dhcpd2 kernel log messages:
> Limiting icmp unreach response from 228 to 200 packets per second

The systems are running:

 1$ uname -a
FreeBSD dhcpd2 4.3-BETA FreeBSD 4.3-BETA #1: Sat Mar 17 14:16:38 CET 2001     root@dhcpd2:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DHCP-RH  i386

Can anyone bring light to what this is, and what to do about it if it's
not good?
