I dont want to disable ICMP completely instead i would like to configure the VIP in such a way that if pool members are down ICMP to VIP should fail because i am calling this VIP address in main core device SLA tracking. IF main code device can ping this VIP then it will inject default route and if pool members are down then ICMP to VIP should not work so that core device will take out default route.

 

Is this possible ?

 

Thanks, senthil
