Solved - Blocking established connections?

[pablo]

Hi,

I've set up a single, scheduled IP blocking rule on my LAN.  It works for new connections but it does not block an established connection.

I tried with and without Firewall > Settings > Advanced > Schedule States checked.

How would I go about blocking established connections?

I've searched the forum and I didn't get any hits.  It's possible that my searching -fu isn't all that great.  :\

Thx!

Firewall > Diagnostics > States | Actions : Reset state table
But it resets all connections, not just the ones you might want new rules to apply as far as I can see. I think there has been discussion of it in the past but right now is an action on all connections.

Thx!  Any way to make it programmatic?  I suppose I could try a curl/cron from another machine....

I should have done a better search.  I found how to do it via the CLI:

Code Select Expand

/sbin/pfctl -F state

For others, here's the source of the above and how to automate it:
