How to disable Internet connection without disabling the LAN/network?

I would like to have my devices connected to my server (Ubuntu) that is on all the time but does not want the server necessary be connected to the internet. I have Netgear GC510PP switch and I wonder if I can disable the Internet connection (to one specific port on the switch) without disabling the LAN/network?

  • I tired to acoumplish my gaol by blocking MAC address on the WAC510 but this only worked for devices connected through teh WIFI. I wonder if I can do it in the GC510PP by using the MAC ACL function. Any thoughts appreciated.
