Cant Ping Dl380 G9 - Win Server 2012 R2

[naeemdal]

I am newbie and recently installed Windows Server 2012 R2 in HP Proliant DL380 G9. I have configured static IP in Embedded LOM 1 Port 1. Internet is working fine. I can also ping client machines from server which is connected on same network. But my problem is I cant ping my server IP from client machines. It sound weird and I never ever faced this weird issue before .

Can someone please assist me in this regards.

Any kind of firewall between?

Just installed fresh Windows Server 2012 R2. No firewall except built-in

With your description I was assuming ICMP echo was disable by default on 2012 R2, after a simple search I ran across this article which validated my assumption
