Hello,

I remarked that AD Cleint ping their DC (ICMP) at the computer logon
and user logon.
Why ? And what are the consequences if ICMP is blocked ?
I don't manage a KB which deals with that.

Thanks !

If you block ICMP trafic, restart your computer, login, you can see
with GPRESULT tools that Slow Link in not on despite ICMP lack.
If ICMP doesn't work it disable SlowLink by default ?
