My Internet Service Providor has got some new fancy equipment to monitor their network. Unfortuatnly this equipment ping my ip-address every 15 seconds and hence make a line in the logfile 'ACCESS BLOCK' .

Is it possible to somehow exclude this specific ip-address - from where the ping comes - from being written into the logfile?

Thanks.

    To allow ping from the IP of this equipment to USG110, you can create a new security policy rule.
    From: WAN, To: ZyWALL, Source: IP address of the equipment, Service: ping, Action: allow, Log: no

    Also, if you do not want to allow the ping request, the rule could look like this:

    From: WAN, To: ZyWALL, Source: IP.address.of.equipment, Service: ping, Action: deny, Log: no
