Folks,

Here's how you'd identify an ICMP type 8 message - it's not the straight hex
mapping of the type, it's a user readable hack:

PO1/1/0       172.16.156.1   Gi8/0/0       192.168.0.1 01 0000 0800 1
                                                               ^^
                                     first two digits, type 8  ||^^
                                   second two digits map to code ||                 
So source quench is type 4, code 0 which is what we might expect to see if
someone is trying to test malware (without knowing that J&C aren't hit):

PO1/1/0       172.16.156.1   Gi8/0/0       192.168.0.1 01 0000 0400 1

I'd also recommend looking for type 3, all codes 'til we get a handle on
this. We know of problems with code 2 and 4, protocol unreachable and pMTU:

PO1/1/0       172.16.156.1   Gi8/0/0       192.168.0.1 01 0000 0302 1
PO1/1/0       172.16.156.1   Gi8/0/0       192.168.0.1 01 0000 0304 1


I'm not sure Juniper handles it in the same way.
