JPCAP

Hi, I need some help regarding the package Jpcap, I know that I can capture the packet, but can I ever block it before it leaves the NIC? I really need some help, is it possible to block packets using Jpcap? is there any other way or language other than java? if anyone knows please inform me ASAP.

Is there any way - certainly. For example pull out the network cable. Or configure the router to refuse packets from a particular machine.Why would you need to know this?

I need to know the algorithm in which I would be able to block the packet, I dont want to unplug the cable or reconfigure the router, I want to filter the packet content so that it must match some specific rules, IP dest. for example, if it responds to those rules then the packet can go, if not then the packet is blocked, does java support such a thing? Jpcap only supports capturing the packet, but it does not block it.

anyone?
