Enable Server Ping Response

I know this might be a bit off topic but any help would be appreciated.

When I setup my vicidial server I had initially blocked any ping responses from anyone trying to ping my server.
I want to re-enable ping requests. The problem is, I can't remember how I done it.

I didn't do it through IPTables and I didn't do it through the sysctl method either. What other methods is there to blocking the ping requests?

Current reading.

Pinging xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Thanks
