# Create an Inbound ICMP Rule
|
||
|
||
**Applies to**
|
||
- Windows 10
|
||
- Windows Server 2016
|
||
|
||
To allow inbound Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) network traffic, use the Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security node in the Group Policy Management MMC snap-in to create firewall rules. This type of rule allows ICMP requests and responses to be sent and received by computers on the network.
|
||
|
||
**Administrative credentials**
|
||
|
||
To complete these procedures, you must be a member of the Domain Administrators group, or otherwise be delegated permissions to modify the GPOs.
|
||
|
||
This topic describes how to create a port rule that allows inbound ICMP network traffic. For other inbound port rule types, see:
|
||
|
||
- [Create an Inbound Port Rule](create-an-inbound-port-rule.md)
|
||
|
||
- [Create Inbound Rules to Support RPC](create-inbound-rules-to-support-rpc.md)
|
||
|
||
To create an inbound ICMP rule
|
||
|
||
1. Open the Group Policy Management Console to [Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security](open-the-group-policy-management-console-to-windows-firewall-with-advanced-security.md).
|
||
|
||
2. In the navigation pane, click **Inbound Rules**.
|
||
|
||
3. Click **Action**, and then click **New rule**.
|
||
|
||
4. On the **Rule Type** page of the New Inbound Rule Wizard, click **Custom**, and then click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
5. On the **Program** page, click **All programs**, and then click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
6. On the **Protocol and Ports** page, select **ICMPv4** or **ICMPv6** from the **Protocol type** list. If you use both IPv4 and IPv6 on your network, you must create a separate ICMP rule for each.
|
||
|
||
7. Click **Customize**.
|
||
|
||
8. In the **Customize ICMP Settings** dialog box, do one of the following:
|
||
|
||
- To allow all ICMP network traffic, click **All ICMP types**, and then click **OK**.
|
||
|
||
- To select one of the predefined ICMP types, click **Specific ICMP types**, and then select each type in the list that you want to allow. Click **OK**.
|
||
|
||
- To select an ICMP type that does not appear in the list, click **Specific ICMP types**, select the **Type** number from the list, select the **Code** number from the list, click **Add**, and then select the newly created entry from the list. Click **OK**
|
||
|
||
9. Click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
10. On the **Scope** page, you can specify that the rule applies only to network traffic to or from the IP addresses entered on this page. Configure as appropriate for your design, and then click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
11. On the **Action** page, select **Allow the connection**, and then click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
12. On the **Profile** page, select the network location types to which this rule applies, and then click **Next**.
|
||
|
||
13. On the **Name** page, type a name and description for your rule, and then click **Finish**.
