There are two EC2 windows instance placed in same VPC and same public subnet having same security group. I want to check if both are able to communicate with each other using ping command. I have added rules at both security group and NACL level. ALL ICMP is also been included exclusively other than "all" traffic. but I am not able to test the same. kindly suggest if there is any other way I can check connectivity between two ec2 windows instances?

If the two EC2 instances are in the same VPC, Subnet, and Security Group you just need to check that the following is in place:

  1. Security Group allows inbound ALL ICMP is from self (self reference the security group id)
  2. Security Group outbound ALL TRAFFIC is allowed.
  3. Subnet has a route to LOCAL in the VPC
