Is it necessary? Hmm, what kind of firewall is it? Surely it can do stateful filtering. Ie, allow ping out and back in again. And the same with other traffic. I know that's what I do with our linux firewall... -----Original Message----- From: Anders Norrbring [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 3:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Razor-users] Ping? Is it necessary? I just learned that Razor should be able to "ping" servers, can it do without the ping? I have a very tight firewall, and I really don't like to open it up for ICMP traffic...
