What is svcmsgHostUnreach?

This read-write string is the message text sent when the host or a specific host application is unreachable, typically triggered by an ICMP 'host unreachable' or 'port unreachable' message. It defaults to "Host Unreachable". Admins see it as a signal the remote host itself, not just the path to it, is the problem.
