I am a user of the Mikrotik routing software and want to know how to block some bad traffic, its built on Terminal Linux but can be logged into thru the Putty, telnet and a windows tool called Winbox, please if anyone has an Idea on how to do some good stuff on it lets get to talk.
Winbox is a good start to blocking unwanted traffic. You can set a firewall rule in IP>Firewall>Filter Rules. Under general u have src and dest. address, plus the ability to block on ports. Can leave you dest. Just block the ip address of the sites u dont want, move to IP>Firewall>FilterRules>Actions and choose either drop or reject. Should work fine
