To block an individual IP address from accessing your Linux server, you can use the following iptables command:
iptables -A INPUT -s IPADDR -j DROP
Simply replace IPADDR with the IP address you are wanting to drop all packets from.
How do I block ranges?
Here is an example of a range block:
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.1/24 -j DROP
This would block 192.168.0.1-255
How do I unblock the IP?
Simply change "DROP" in the commands above to "ACCEPT".
