# uncommon\_icmp\_reject **Explanation** The uncommon\_icmp\_reject event is triggered when the Netography Detection Module (NDM) detects network flows for ICMP messages that indicate that there is traffic on the network that is being administratively prohibited (blocked). **What to Look For** Typically, these ICMP messages are sent in response to traffic that is being blocked by a firewall, either at the host or network level. In some cases this could be a sign that a network is compromised, and the attacker is running scans or attempting to access parts of the network that are firewalled. These events could also be triggered by misconfigurations or authorized network scanning activity. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.fusion.vectra.ai/detection-models/library/post-compromise/uncommon_icmp_reject.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
