    Installed Linux computer to turn off the ping request can use the sysctl tool. For this you need something, switch to a console (terminal)
    sysctl -w net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1
    to give the command.
    To ensure the permanence of this process /etc/sysctl.conf file
    net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1
    is sufficient to add the line. Ping requests we want to turn it back on the same command can open ping requests to 0 ... 1

    net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1 will turn ping off as you have stated. To re-enable it you would simply change it to net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=0
