How to block connection from pc1 to pc2 (HELP)
-
so the game server is linux? Then I would suggest you install webmin on it, this gives you an easy to use and understand graphically interface to your firewall (iptables)
So does your switch support vlans? Your going to have to connect the server you want to block to your other lan port as the easier option. But what your doing it much easier with just a host firewall. Now if you had bunch of servers that you wanted to control access from your clients then sure put all the servers on segment 1, and clients on segment 2 and then you could use pfsense to control access.
But you got 1 server and 1 client you need to filter - this is easier done on the 1 server.

Vlans might be an over complication for this situation. You have to have a switch that supports it. Has Johnpoz said put iptables on the linux server and use that to manage iptables. This is not the place to into configuring it though. I do know how though.
