I'm considering: ipfw add N deny ip from a.b.c.d to any
vs. route add -host a.b.c.d localhost I need to block traffic to a number of IP addresses. I thought I'd use ipfw to avoid things like UDP DNS lookups that might come in ant take up resources while my system tried to respond, but it's been suggested on another list that setting routes to localhost will use less resources. Ideally, I'd like to be able to block a few tens of thousands of IPs.
