ICMP "Destination unreachable" - should it be sent?



Hi all,

some time ago, I read the ICMPv6 RFC (rfc2463) and found the following
message: "Destination Unreachable Message
Code 1 - communication with destination administratively prohibited"

Should this message be sent when a packet does not conform to the local
security policy database (spd), or should such packets be silently dis-
carded?

Stefan.
