hardcode/ force proxy

[Jose]

hi,

 

I'm not that strong with macs but I have the following task I need to complete.

I want to stop our macs comunicating directly with our default gateway or upstream proxy.

Messing with the gateway itself is out of the question unfortunately.

 

Can anyone advide how to block any communuication with

172.16.1.254

using iptables or the mac version of iptables.

 

Thanks

Hi.

Go into terminal and type:

 

sudo ipfw list

 

This will show the current firewall settings. It will probably read:

 

65535 allow ip from any to any

 

Then type:

 

sudo ipfw deny ip from YOUR_IP to 172.16.1.254

 

That should do it. Type 'sudo ipfw list' again to check.

If it doesn't work, Type 'sudo allow ip from any to any' again to put it back.
