Matt,

I'm pretty sure it's >30000.  only open up icmp type codes 0 and 11
(i think traceroute needs those as well), and those really high udp ports.

actually i think traceroute is ports 33434 >< 33465, but there are a few
different traceroute programs/versions out there, you might want to check
the source and see what they all use.
