      Hello,

      We have a connect computer, example:

      192.168.2.2

      But we want kill all active/future connections, like lan cable off

      If we put a rule that blocks all * 192.168.2.2 source and 192.168.2.2 destination * PLUS put 192.168.2.2 in Squid Banned host addresses.

      The active connections don't stop, in other means, if the 192.168.2.2 its using the google talk communicator inside GMAIL, its still works.

      How its the right way to block a lan computer to establish any type of connection (the active too)?

      Thanks

        To kill active connections you have to go to the States table and use the "X" button to remove all states involving that IP address.  Your firewall rules will only block future connections, not active ones.
