You dont need a rule. Just Uncheck the "Accept ICMP" box in the
Policy/Properties and reinstall the policy

Hello all,
I am a newbie with this software and have been thrust into a situation that
requires me to write a rule for my firewall denying all ICMP traffic. Our
regular administrator is unreachable and we have no tech support. I need to
lock this down to stop a "Smurf" attack on my network. If anyone might be
kind enough to lend me a hand I would appreciate it. I'm sure it's easy for
people who are well versed in the software, but I am looking at it for the
first time today! I'm sure that rule may already be in place, but need to
verify that. I figured out the basics on how to create the rule, but I'm not
sure where the objects should be placed and what, if any, advanced features
I need to invoke.
Thanks,
Paul
