I want to use route -blackhole to silently discard packets.

I always used 127.0.0.1 as the gateway.

But netstat shows me I still have packets transferred.

I realized I was routing on wrong interface.

Please share your examples on how you use route -blackhole (or -reject).

Or share your thoughts on why I should use a packet filter instead.

Thanks!
