It is content filtering. You are filtering packets that you think are
causing problems to the ES that you may not control.

No, he said quite clearly he's filtering packets (such as Nachi ICMP) that are
causing harm to *his* network.  He gets to make a choice - filter the known
problem packets so the rest of the traffic can get through, or watch the
network melt down and nobody gets anything.

He needs to fix his network so those 92 byte ICMP packets wont break it.
