Setting Ping Packet Size in Unicenter
Setting Ping Packet Size in Unicenter
(OP)
Hi. We have a DSM pinging boxes on the other side of a firewall. For security, the firewall has a max allowable ICMP packet size of 65 Bytes. If I ping the remote IPs from the DSM box using just a cmd prompt, it sends the default 32 byte packets and I get a standard reply. However, the DSM is pinging with 84 byte packets, so they're being dropped by the firewall (naturally setting off alarms). I've looked everywhere for a setting or config file (including PingIP.atp and IP.atp) but can't find anything that sets the ICMP packet size used by TND. Making changes to the firewall is an extreme last resort. Anybody have any ideas?

The internal DSM nevers polls what's out in the DMZ (firewall side). Only the proxy DSM does that. Which I guess is why we aren't confronted with the issue like yours.
