ICMP have many types some of them are UDP packets (refer to TCP/IP II ), to
fully understand the traffic flow run "soop -v -d interface_name
68.60.32.5" if u using Unix box or any packet capture tool on NT to capture
the payload on ur sensor that it detected this alert.
Most likely and this just a guess with looking to ur captured traffic u'll
find that ur host x.x.x.4 tried trace route or (some other type of ICMP
packets that use UDP) to 68.60.32.5 and when this host or the
router/firewall in front of it tried to reply to ur host ur firewall
generated the "ICMP Destination Unreachable(Communication Administratively
Prohibited)"
This is a just rough explanation with me knowing where ur sensor is located

Subject: Interesting packets
I've been tracing these packets for a while now, and am having a bit of
trouble deciphering what's happening. It appears that this host is
attempting to contact an external host over udp port 8197 where the
firewall blocks it. Interesting points are:
It looks like host x.x.x.4 is initiating a udp session with 68.60.32.5
over port 8197.
We block this port with egress filtering at the firewall, as it is not a
dataflow we utilize in our production systems.
Anybody deciphered similar alerts?
