The man pages you *probably* want are pf.conf(5) and pfctl(8). Also see http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/ The answer is yes, you can do that. Quick answer: echo 'block drop in from 216.87.0.0/17' | pfctl -mf - -n The above won't work until you read the man page for pfctl and remove one of the options. ;) There are better ways in the long run.
