Does "access-list permit ip any any" permit ping ? or I have to issue : "ping icmp any any" ?

Because as far as I remember (right now I do not any router handy) when i had configured a router long time ago, I used to use: permit ip any any

Any comment will be appreciated.

Thanks
 
Well ACL's are very interesting to work with. But you have to make sure that you name your ACL like 101 or something like that depending on what type of ACL you want, but if you put permit IP Any Any then yes it will allow ping.

Also it dosen't matter on the network if you are using ICMP, RIP, IGRP, ACLs are all the same on the router.
