Yes, you can stop your MultiCom router from responding to external ping requests by adding the following lines to the filtering section of your configuration file.
Code:
# --- Ping Filter Configuration
IP Filter Deny From Any To Any ICMP EchoRequest
IP Filter Allow From Any To Any
IP Filter On
IP Filter RouterFrames On

For more information on filtering with the 2.x firmware be sure to read the Reference Manual description of IP Filter as well as the section on IP Filtering in the TCP/IP chapter.
