ICMP redirect

This isn't critical, but I'm wondering if someone can tell me what 
is going on here. 

I did
	traceroute 217.20.241.75
and got several of the following on ttyv0, which displays kernel and 
other messages:
	icmp redirect from 213.232.120.198: 217.20.241.75 => 213.232.120.194

I'm guessing that the router at 213.232.120.198 is redirecting ICMP 
packets, but why is this information showing up on the tty that 
handles internal messages?
