Actually this is "host unreachable", and it is proper behaviour to retr=
y
the connection in this case (from icmp.h :
/* RFC 1122: 3.2.2.1 States that NET_UNREACH, HOS_UNREACH and SR_FAIELD=
MUST be
considered 'transient errrs'. */)
But shouldn't the ICMP code be one of
9 Communication with Destination Network is
Administratively Prohibited
10 Communication with Destination Host is
Administratively Prohibited
(from RFC1700 Assigned Numbers. These are defined in icmp.h as ICMP_NET=
_ANO
and ICMP_HOST_ANO respectively.)
