Title: Block IP Address
Post by: echoDreamz on Wednesday 01 April 2009, 06:17:41 pm
I am trying to block a few IPs from getting in using the commands

iptables -A OUTPUT -d x.x.x.x -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -s x.x.x.x -j DROP

It seems to take them, but the IP address can still access.

Am I missing something here? Not sure why this isnt a easily built in feature of Endian.

Thanks!

I can't belive this is not a built in option!

I get freak sip calls from some phones through the night so have to block the IPs at the firewall

I can do this on my £30 netgear router but not this.crazy!

Have you tried setting up a rule to route the offending IP addresses to a host on the internal network that doesn't exist?

Not sure about the ramifications of this on Endian though but should work with what you are trying to do.
