   Code

      0 = pointer indicates the error.

   Checksum

      The checksum is the 16-bit ones's complement of the one's
      complement sum of the ICMP message starting with the ICMP Type.
      For computing the checksum , the checksum field should be zero.

   Pointer

      If code = 0, identifies the octet where an error was detected.

   Internet Header + 64 bits of Data Datagram

      The internet header plus the first 64 bits of the datagram that
