Right. It's not that easy. Note:
Code:
$ man -k mroute
mrouted (8) - IP multicast routing daemon
$ man -k carp
...
carp (4) - Common Address Redundancy Protocol
...
Neither of these modules are related to ICMP. You apparently will need to have more technical knowledge than you currently possess.

I note you still haven't said why you insist on doing this. 18Googol2 suggested it might be for "security through obscurity." If so, my opinion hasn't changed: you are wasting your time. The consensus of the OpenBSD Project is that security through obscurity is a fallacy. I agree. It may seem plausible to newcomers, but it provides no advantages and may lull one into false assumptions of security.
