Boojak2 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Anybody knows a certain program that can block incoming or outgoing packets of an IP address in my network? For example, I want to block 'incoming' packets of an IP address, but want to accept 'outgoing' packets for that IP address. Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance!Hi there, and Welcome.It certainly sounds as though your requirements fall within the boundaries of "Firewall Best Practices"Click here for further information: **Firewall Best Practices**Also here for an understanding of firewalls: **Basic types of Firewalls**There are many programs (Software) available, Retail, Freeware, and Open Source with most of the authors either giving full details to configure as you would wish, or at least willing to help you configure.Standalone hardware firewalls are also available, as are configurable firewalls within most modern routers.I hope that this has been of some use to you, and will give you a guideline as to what you should be searching for.John.
