DescriptionFirewall Options Keywords
The firewall blocks incoming ICMP/ICMPv6 Echo requests (Ping).
This option may break some types of traceroute requests to the phone.
Windows tracert is one example.
Example Firewall Options entry with a combination of options:
NO_ICMP_PING,TCP:12000,UDP:8000:8010
The firewall runs with default settings and the following additional options:
• Drops incoming ICMP/ICMPv6 Echo (Ping) requests.
• Opens TCP port 12000 (IPv4 and IPv6) for incoming connections.
• Opens UDP port range 8000-8010 (IPv4 and IPv6) for incoming
requests.
NO_ICMP_PING
The phone doesn't send ICMP/ICMPv6 Destination Unreachable
for UDP ports.
The exception is to always send Destination
Unreachable for ports in the RTP port range.
This option may break some types of traceroute requests to
the device. For example, Linux traceroute may break.
