Restrict ICMP to specific IP's was created by sgibbs
Hi, I currently have "Disable PING from the Internet" unchecked which allows anyone to ping and get a response from my 2860N. I would like, if possible, to restrict this so only certain IP's get a response.
I have tried creating firewall rules that allow ICMP for the IP's that I want to get a response and a generic block to cover everything else. However, this does not seem to work and any IP can ping my router.
Does anyone have any idea of how to configure/restrict this? Is it even possible on a 2860N? I am running the latest 3.8.9 firmware.

I have a /29 IP block, so 6 usable IP's. I only need to allow ping on one of them. However, as long as I can restrict who can ping my WAN IP Aliases it wouldn't be an issue if all 6 responded.

Have just had this response from support:
On our DrayOS routers, it's not possible to restrict certain IP's to ping the router. Sorry for the inconvenience.

You can probably block certain IPs...but not on the WAN side because the firewall comes after that.
