      Hi,

      I have three interfaces on my firewall - LAN, WAN, and OPT1. LAN is where everything like SharePoint, ADFS, etc sit, WAN is for DMZ, and OPT1 is for my load balancer F5.

      My F5 appliance cannot ping the LAN servers. I'd like to open the LAN up to be pinged from anything on the OPT1 interface/network (172.16.245.x).

      How could I achieve this?

        Create a rule to allow ICMP traffic.

          DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!
