Gaia 81.10/Quantum 6200: Can I drop ICMP redirect packets without logging?

My firewall gets a lot of ICMP requests that are dropped (reason: ICMP redirect packets are not allowed). Is it possible to have them dropped without logging?

Yes you should be able to create an Access Policy rule that does this.
The Track field for this rule should contain “None.”

seems like this doesn't work. ICMP rediret packets are dropped (and logged) before my policies are applied?

What precise rule is it logging on?
If it's Rule 0, check the Implied Rules in Global Properties.

It's not an implied rule. See the screenshot in my first post, it says "Policy Name: Standard", and no rule number

Yes, see https://support.checkpoint.com/results/sk/sk112772 for allowing ICMP redirect packets - then an Access policy as suggested by PhoneBoy will work!
