ICMPFilteringEnabled specifies whether the Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster will load balance Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) traffic.

Note
To enable this Network Load Balancing setting, the NetworkLoadBalancingFullServer package must be enabled in the Windows® image you are installing. To do this, use Windows System Image Manager to add the Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package to your answer file, and then configure the NetworkLoadBalancingFullServer package to enable it. For more information about adding and configuring packages, see the Windows® Assessment and Deployment (Windows ADK) Technical Reference.
