    how to enable ICMP echo request

    Hi



    I am trying to enable ICMP echo request in the Windows Firewall with
    Advanced Security. I find the setting in the Core Networking:
    Destination Unreachable Fragmentation Needed (ICMPv4-in), however, I
    can't seem to be able to customize the setting as it is a predefined rule.

    Anyone has idea how I can achieve?

    Thanks

    why would you need to customize it? you should just need to enable that
    exception and get pings to work.

    I tried to enable it, however, those options are not available for
    change. (only few options in this rule can be changed).
