So I am trying to make a script that blocks a specific IP on my firewall.

I found that the Powershell command is:

New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Name of Scope" -Direction Outbound –LocalPort Any -Protocol TCP -Action Block -RemoteAddress 11.11.11.11/32

Now I'm not sure if that shell command is good or not but It's just what I found.

Now to execute a powershell command through python I read that I need to use either os.system() or subprocess.Popen.

Would anyone be kind enough to tell me how to perform this task please since what I tried didn't work.

  • As aside, the `–` for parameter `LocalPort` looks like an [EM DASH](https://www.w3schools.com/charsets/ref_utf_punctuation.asp). Replace that by a normal dash `-` – Theo Apr 25 '20 at 09:36
