Can I have some help with an explanation of the following message in the log.
I'm just getting started with GRE. It seems to be working. The log message
was caused by a rule in the iptable INPUT chain.
"DROP icmp" is my own log hdr.
eth2 is the external device with IP address 68.15.53.174 which is the local end
of the GRE tunnel. 68.15.53.176 is the remote end of the tunnel.
Where does 10.4.56.1 come from? What does the stuff in [ ] mean?
Below is the message.
