Activity 2-11: Configuring the Server Core Firewall for Ping
Time Required:
10 minutes
Objective:
Configure the Windows Server 2008 firewall to allow Echo Request packets.
Description:
You have configured networking for your Windows Server 2008 Server Core net-
work, and now you want to test the configuration by pinging known IP addresses and then ping-
ing your server from another computer. In this activity, you work with two virtual machines
rather than a partner computer.
1. Log on to Server Core as Administrator and open a command prompt window, if necessary.
Log on to ServerXX as Administrator and open a command prompt window.
2. On ServerXX, to view your basic IP address settings, type
ipconfig
and press
Enter
.
3. Ping your default gateway by typing
ping 192.168.100.1
(or the address Ipconfig displayed
as your default gateway) and pressing
Enter
. If it's successful, you should receive output that
starts with “Reply from
ip_address
” (substituting the address you typed after the Ping com-
mand for
ip_address
.)
4. If Step 3 was successful, type
ping 192.168.100.1XX
(or the IP address Ipconfig displayed
for your Server Core computer) and press
Enter
. If the ping isn't successful, you should see
the message “Request timed out”.
5. To change the firewall settings so that Echo Request packets are permitted through the fire-
wall, on your
Server Core
computer, type
netsh firewall set icmpsetting 8
and press
Enter
.
6. From ServerXX, try to ping your Server Core computer again by typing
ping 192.168.100.1XX
(or the IP address Ipconfig displayed for your Server Core computer) and pressing
Enter
.
You should receive successful replies. If not, verify that your IP address settings are correct
and the command in Step 5 was entered correctly.
C
If you want to disable ping requests again, simply type netsh firewall set
icmpsetting 8 disable and press Enter.
7. If you're continuing to the next activity in Chapter 2, leave the command prompt windows
open.
