Configuring a rule for icmp-type options
ServerIron ADX has a set of built-in rules to manage icmp-type options. In this case, the
rule-icmp-type command is used with a <icmp-option-attack> variable specified in Table 15.
The following example configures the "filter3" security filter with a rule to drop packets that contain
the icmp-type echo-reply type.
ServerIronADX(config)# security filter filter3
ServerIronADX(config-sec-filter3)# rule icmp-type echo-reply drop
Syntax: [no] rule icmp-type <icmp-type> [log | no-log] [drop | no-drop]
The <icmp-type> variable can be one of the options described in Table 15
The log parameter directs the ServerIron ADX to drop traffic on the bound interface that matches
the rule specified by the configured <icmp-type>. The no-log parameter disables this function.
The drop parameter directs the ServerIron ADX to drop traffic on the bound interface that matches
the rule specified by the configured <icmp-type>. The no-drop parameter disables this function
