asked on

how to allow LAN, but block Internet, on certain computers?

Hi. I run a LAN - 50 computers, Windows, AD Domain (for fileserver), kinda standard. I want to add a new Windows computer, but to be restricted to LAN only (i.e. filesharing), WITHOUT any access to the Internet. I want this computer to be blocked, from incoming and outgoing Internet traffic. (this is for its own protection - it's a mission-critical PC.)

How do I accomplish this? Are there software Firewall ports I can open/close? Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks.

Blocking this computer's ip/MAC address in the gateway/router is the simpliest.
