Sorry I forgot to mention that I am using a Nokia M1122 on one subnet with a
Windows 2000 network on another subnet.

Subject: Re: Routing ICMP packets

ICMP is just another IP Protocol, routing is done at the IP layer.

This means that yes, you can route ICMP, to do this you would probably need
a router and at least another subnet (192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24
would do) and then you could setup a box with at least two interfaces and
configure forwarding and route your packets across the box between the two
subnets - you would then be routing ICMP.

The box in question can be pretty much anything as most OS's these days
will do routing of some shape or form or - if you are feeling rich you
could purchase a real router to do this job.

for kicks you can even put in place access lists so you can *only* route
ICMP and deny all other types of IP traffic.

Routing however is not really DSL related, there are other lists that this
question would be better sent to..
