&lt;p&gt;I told the network engineer to check and seem they blocking the ports and disabling ICMP replies from their firewall configuration.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From that accident I do some google-fu if I can do same thing for personal computer / server. We can setting the &lt;code&gt;kernel variable&lt;/code&gt; or use &lt;code&gt;iptable&lt;/code&gt; to disable &lt;code&gt;ICMP / ping&lt;/code&gt; replies if requested.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
