Adding null routes to the address space in question will prevent comms, but it won't stop traffic getting to you and then perhaps being logged.
Some sort of firewall with a policy that denies them without logging? ----- Original Message ----- From: Jorge Biquez [mailto:jbiq...@intranet.com.mx] Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2011 10:59 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> Subject: Simplest way to deny access to a class C Hello all. I am sorry in advance if this question sounds too stupid. I have a small server for personal use of webpages running: 7.3-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.3-PRERELEASE #0 it is working fine , no problem very stable. I just need to block some IP class C address that are always trying to "discover" directories or applications under the web server. They do not do and can not do anything since this server has nothing installed but i am tired of seeing in the logs all the intents they do every 2-3 seconds. I have not installed any kind of firewall yet. What do you think is the best way to accomplish this task? If possible the easiest one. I do not want to do anything else but just bloc IP's, at this moment at least. Thanks in advance.
