You can deny access to a list of predefined IM/P2P applications outbound and filter by

MAC and/or IP address. You can check the current MAC addresses of devices connected

to your router under System > VLAN Setup > DHCP Server under the DHCP leases

router by adding static DHCP leases or reservations. The access control section can also
