ICMP (Ping)

Respond to
ICMP (ping)

The ICMP protocol is used by the "ping" and "traceroute" programs,
and by network monitoring and diagnostic programs.

•

If checked, the DSL/Cable Router will repond to ICMP packets

received from the Internet.

•

If not checked, ICMP packets from the Internet will be ignored.

Disabling this option provides a slight increase in security.
