To set a blocking list use this command:

    TestIOCTL /set filename

Where filename is a file that contains the NDIS name of the lower adapter to be used followed by the list of dotted IP addresses to block on the adapter. Here is an example that is targeted to the "National Semiconductor Corp. DP83820 10/100/1000 GigPhyter PCI Adapter":

#
# Sample IP Address Blocking List File
#
# Lines beginning with '#' are comments. Leading and trailing whitespace
# is ignored. Empty lines are ignored.
#
# The first non-comment line must be the NDIS name of the lower adapter
# that the list of IP addresses to block is intended.
#
\Device\{B3B985AD-EB56-4F6A-8D16-131118E52131}

#
# Then comes the list of IP addresses to block. The IP addresses can
# have a comment, if desirable.
#
172.16.1.10
  192.168.2.1
    192.168.2.2     
 192.168.2.3    
172.16.100.5
...
192.168.2.4     ; Can have comments per IP address, if desirable...

If you want to return all adapters to the default state – namely, no IP addresses and so no filtering – do

    TestIOCTL /setdflt

If you want view IP blocking statistics use this command:

    TestIOCTL /stats
