4.17.9.2 By prompt, script or batch file
Basic procedure
With a command according to the following scheme, you can permit ICMP pings which arrive
at the company network interface (X1) of the Siemens PC system. Outgoing pings from the
Siemens PC system are already activated.
Note
Dependency for the file and printer release
If you activated the file and printer release in the company network, incoming ping requests
are already permitted because they are required for the file and printer release.
The name of the relevant firewall rule is "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-
In)". To do this, call the prompt as the administrator and enter the command either completely
or successively.
Alternatively, you can save the command and the associated parameters in a script or batch
file (Page 70).
Syntax for activating a firewall rule via the prompt
