Local IP or outside public IP? Some routers come with firewall up and running on purpose. For ping you have to specifically allow it.

Local IP.  The issue was with a recent update to the antivirus software that by default blocked all pings from the computer.  The software was on multiple computers all experiencing the same issue.  Reconfigure the software and all is working as it should

Thank you for the response.
