Hola Ricardo,

I'm by no means an expert in this subject matter of ICMP nor TCP/IP, but
I'll try to assist you to the best of my ability. As I understand it, you
should be able to do TCP/IP Filtering as documented in the following article
similar to Windows 2003:

816792 HOW TO: Configure TCP/IP Filtering in Windows 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=816792

Or according to the following article, use like a Router or Firewall to do
the function for you:

325122 Internet Control Message Protocol "Destination Unreachable" (Code =
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=325122

The code value of the ICMP Destination Unreachable packet is 0x0D. The
hexadecimal code 0X0D (code decimal 13) translates to "Communication
Administratively Prohibited" from Requests for Comments (RFC) 1812:

13 = Communication Administratively Prohibited - generated if a
router cannot forward a packet due to administrative filtering;

This is generated if a router cannot forward a packet because of
administrative filtering. This is the code value for an administrative
denial, which indicates that a router is filtering a port and is not
permitting traffic to pass. The packet is typically seen when traffic is
refused to pass through a router or a firewall.
