2800 Blocking incoming IP addresses was created by nick555
Hi
I'm getting a fair amount of remote attempts to log into my server. I'd like to be able to block certain ranges of IP addresses, is there a way I can do this on my 2800 router please?

To block connections they'd still have to make contact with your router. So there isn't much to be gained by doing it. I don't think it can be done anyway.

That's a pity; I was looking for the same function...
I have a couple of old routers here that can be programmed to drop/ignore traffic from specific IP addresses.
Aww well. Something for the wishlist..

Can't you just set up a call filter to block the ranges you want?

I'm working on that. Is it a call filter or data filter?

It would need to be a Data filter, its comparatively easy to set up on the 2800 series.
You'd only need to make one rule to block an IP range, set it to Block Immediately, change the Protocol to TCP/UDP etc depending on what you're blocking, put the IP address/subnet that you want to block in the Source IP and leave the source ports blank. Put the destination IP as your server and the destination ports that you want to block.
edit: you'd also need to change the Direction to IN
