USING THE WEB-BASED ADVANCED USER INTERFACE

Blocking an ICMP Ping

Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential victims on

the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving a response from the

IP address, a hacker can determine that something of interest might be there.

The Router can be set up so it will not respond to an ICMP ping from the

outside. This heightens the level of security of your Router.

To turn off the ping response, select “Block ICMP Ping” (1) and click “Apply

Changes”. The Router will not respond to an ICMP ping.
