    Allow network sharing - but selectively deny internet access


    * Allow home network sharing - but selectively deny internet access to secondary computers

    Searching for answers, I found threads for the inverse situation
    (allow guest internet access but block access to host resources) but not my question.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I want to share resources between 2-5 machines at home,
    but deny internet access to the secondary machines - except when I specify.

    I run machines off a 10 port GB ethernet switch before the router.

    How can I do this? Thank you

    :)

    Windows Firewall: Allow internal network / deny internet access

    Hi all,
    Been lurking here for years, but I finally need some direct help please.
    I have a need to allow a specific program to have internal network access, but disallow/deny that same program all internet access. I don't see any way to do this in the firewall settings. It seems like it's an all or nothing toggle. What am I missing?
    I'm using Malwarebytes Windows Firewall Control, which is just a fancy GUI for the built-in windows firewall.

    windows ver: 1909

    - - - Updated - - -

    Really, almost 2600 views and not a single suggestion? Is this really such an impossible problem? *Huh
    If so, is there another firewall program (free or paid) that would allow me to do this?
    I have a security camera system that needs internal access to my network, but the software I use is notorious for pushing out automatic updates that break the system. I can't have that, so the suggestion is to block access to the internet for that program. However, I can't block internet and still allow internal network traffic with the Windows Firewall. Not that I can find anyway.

    1. Open Admin command and type: ipconfig

      Allow network sharing - but selectively deny internet access [​IMG]
    2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
      Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
      NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank
