About icmp-shell tool and ping-tunnel app-id

Hello,

I want to watch ping-tunnel app-id on traffic logs. So I tried icmp-shell tool generated traffics and then went through FW.

But These traffics showed icmp app-id.

First, What should I do to seeing ping-tunnel app-id?

Second, Is it impossible to use icmp-shell tool?

Thanks,

KC Lee

Hi Cheon,

Please find Ping-tunnel appid descryption: Application Research Center >> ping-tunnel.

Ptunnel is an application that allows you to reliably tunnel TCP connections to a remote host using ICMP echo request and reply packets, commonly known as ping requests and replies. Tunnelshell is another such client/server program written in C for Linux users that tunnels a shell using ICMP and other methods.

ITs seems you can only use either Ptunnel or Tunnelshell.

Let me know if this helps.

Hardik Shah
