Block Windows 10 phone home IP Addresses

Hey guys,

I am looking to block all the hosts and IP addresses that windows uses to "phone home"

The list is quite long so it would be great if there was a mass import or something to make it easy

Here are the known hosts and IP addresses

Thanks

  • I didn't want to enable the web filter on my home UTM so I made a network host object pointing to a non-existant RFC1918 ip (UTM won't let you drop in the loopback ip) and dumped the entire list into the "additional hostnames" field under DNS settings. There's a little icon that lets you import a list from raw text. Of course this only works if your workstations only use the UTM as a resolver (mine do).
