According to this post by Rmerlin: http://www.snbforums.com/threads/block-ping-all-icmp.14269/ ,
the option "Respond ping request from WAN" adds a firewall rule allowing all ICMP packets when enabled. How does the firmware handle ICMP redirects when this is enabled? Does it only allow ICMP redirects from the default gateway or all sources? Isn't this a security risk or is this type of ICMP message still blocked?
