AG 5500
System Administration 231
Establishing ICMP Blocking Parameters {ICMP}
The AG 5500 includes the option to block all ICMP traffic from “pending” or “non
authenticated” users that are destined to addresses other than those defined in the pass-through
(walled garden) list. The default setting for this option is “disabled” since ICMP pass-through
is a useful end-user troubleshooting feature and also required by certain smart clients (for
example, GRIC).
1. From the Web Management Interface, click on System, then ICMP. The ICMP screen
appears:
2. Click on the check box for Block ICMP from pending users to enable (or disable) this
feature, as required.
3. You can Ping a host via the network port by simply entering the IP address of the host
you want to ping then clicking on the
Submit button.
4. Click on the Submit button to save your changes, or click on the Reset button to reset all
values to their previous state.
