IP level trust is a nice extra hoop to jump through (but not a true
security device by itself).

You can install a "personal firewall" package, but I wouldn't recommend
it. Why would you be able to install some form of IP layer blocking but
not add OS level filtering?
Which SSH server are you using? OpenSSH with cygwin can be built with
TCP wrappers natively.

If you're using a commercial vendor's product, it would be better left
up to them.
