Pause and Resume UDP traffic by IP or hostname

[homBase]

Hello,
I am trying to understand how to pause messages being sent from one system via udp to another system point-to- point on a specific ip address, and resume it when needed.

I was hopeing there was a system commnad I could use in a simple script.

If anyone has any suggestions or wisdom on this subject it would be gladly welcomed.

Thanks D hombase

Depending on your OS/Software you may be able to have a script modify your iptables or ipchains config file (firewall software, you can download for free) to accept or drop the packets.
