Nortel Business Secure Router 222 Configuration — Basics
If an outside user attempts to probe an unsupported port on your Business Secure
Router, an ICMP response packet is automatically returned. This allows the
outside user to know the Business Secure Router exists. The Business Secure
Router series support antiprobing, which prevents the ICMP response packet from
being sent. This keeps outsiders from discovering your Business Secure Router
when unsupported ports are probed.

Table 98 describes the fields in Figure 134.
Note: In order to allow Ping on the WAN, you must also configure a
WAN to WAN/ Business Secure Router rule that allows PING(ICMP:0)
traffic.

Label Description
ICMP Internet Control Message Protocol is a message control and
error-reporting protocol between a host server and a gateway to the
Internet. ICMP uses Internet Protocol (IP) datagrams, but the
messages are processed by the TCP/IP software and directly
apparent to the application user.
Respond to Ping

The Business Secure Router does not respond to any incoming Ping
requests when Disable is selected. Select LAN to reply to incoming
LAN Ping requests. Select WAN to reply to incoming WAN Ping
requests. Otherwise, select LAN & WAN to reply to both incoming
