Hi,

We have discussed it among the team. The support team would prefer to have ICMP enabled on servers since it would be easier to ping a server to verify if a server is online.

Moreover, you can disable/enable ICMP via the sysctl.conf file.

# echo "net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all = 1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf 
# sysctl -p

In consideration with the query made by the support team, we have decided to kindly decline this request.

Hello,

Today, if I enable the firewall with DENY_ALL first (through the dashboard), I can not add an ALLOW rule for ICMP.

This is the reason for requesting this feature.
