how to ban entire subnets in dayz

[piff]

I noticed some hackers are trying to hack my server so I want to ban their subnet.

for example 201.9.xxx.xxx (would like to ban that) can this be done on ban list or firewall?


how do I do this?

bans.txt should allow you to do 201.9.*.*

Did you try manually adding the ban to the .txt or did you use a program?

both, the way you said the ip ends up dis spearing

I wasn't sure if either worked to be honest, I usually ban IP's via the firewall rather than battleye.

Windows firewall...Add Inbound rule to block traffic to that ip range.

whats the code for the IP range

(I.e. 201.9.0.0 - 201.9.255.255 )

is that the correct setting to block the subnet?

Yes...Why didn't you just test it instead of asking?
