NIS 2010 Shields UP Test

I just ran shields up test on Nis 2010 it passed nearly all of them except one, it failed the last one by responding to a ping request,

how do you config Nis to block ping request.

 

cheers max.

And speaking of routers, that is what Shields Up! actually sees, rather than the Norton Smart Firewall.  When you are behind a router your computer does not face the internet and is invisible to the outside world, so the software firewall cannot really be tested using these types of port scanners.  Hence mrkqql143’s comment.
