Allowing embedded ICMP packets

More Information:

Allowing embedded ICMP packets

Security flow allows embedded ICMP packets to pass through your device even when there is no session match. By default, an embedded ICMP packet is dropped if it does not match any session. Use the allow-embedded-icmp statement at the [edit security flow] hierarchy level to enable this feature. Once enabled, all packets encapsulated in ICMP pass through and no policy affects this behavior. This feature is useful when you have asymmetric routing in your network and you want to use traceroute and other ICMP applications on your device.
