The ICMP protocol is used by the "ping" and "traceroute" programs, and by network monitoring and diagnostic programs.

•If checked, the TW100-BRF114U will repond to ICMP packets received from the Internet.

•If not checked, ICMP packets from the Internet will be ignored. Disabling this option provides a slight increase in security.

The IPSec protocol is used to establish a secure connection, and is widely used by VPN (Virtual Private Networking) programs.

•If checked, IPSec connections are allowed.

•If not checked, IPSec connections are blocked.
