The ICMP document is a general document; this document (IMO) is more about what to do when under suspected attack (or should be, to some extent). If tcp-secure doesn't recommend blocking when tcp-secure is active (i.e., when such attacks are suspected), then there is no point to the rest of tcp-secure. It is useless to address the more challenging spoofing attack vector and not address the easier one. Joe
