Deny internet access to port

Can someone please point me in the right direction to deny a specific port or MAC address to access outside of my network (the internet)?

 

I would still like to have access to that device from within my network. I guess you can say I would like to quarantine a specific device from accessing the internet. From other posts, would Interface Shaping Rate be the right solution? Or something else?

    denet,

     

    Welcome to our community! :)

     

    From what I understood is that you want to limit this PC to only be accessed on your LAN but it cannot go/take connections from the internet. Is that correct?

     

    Regards,

      Yes, that is correct. But I figured out a way to do this on my router instead.
