ICMP request not allowed
-
Hi,
I was trying to access outbound PING but it was not allowed via PFSense. I already created a Firewall Rule but no to avail. Pls. see below the sample rule that i've created.
Created a rule under WAN
-Pass
Protocol - ICMP
Source - any
Destination - WAN addressI hope anybody can help me figure this out. Thanks
-
Can you post all your firewall rules?
-
OUTbound means to me that you are trying to ping from LAN to an IP somewhere on the internet, correct? Then you should have the allow rule on the LAN interface, never on the WAN.
-
Yeah - Basically you have allowed ICMP on the WAN which is often useful, but doesn't sound like this is what you want.
The reason I want to see the rest of your LAN rules is because outgoing ICMP should work in a default setup unless you have made a rule that kills it.

Hi Guys,
This is the only rules that i've got in my LAN…ID Proto Source Port Destination Port Gateway Queue Schedule Description
* * * LAN Address 443
80 * * Anti-Lockout RuleIPv4 ICMP LAN net * WAN address * * none
IPv4 TCP ! AllowFBselected * BlockFBAlias * * none FB not allowed
IPv4 TCP/UDP LAN address * * * * none Allow LAN Outbound
IPv4 * LAN net * * * * none Default allow LAN to any rule
IPv6 * LAN net * * * * none Default allow LAN IPv6 to any rule

IPv4 ICMP LAN net * WAN address * * none
You allow ICMP from LAN to the WAN address of your pfSense box, so the rest of the world is blocked…
