I´ve been searching in the forum and only found old theads about ARES P2P blocking.
I´m testing MT … i´m new in this.
I´m doing some basic P2P limiting and blocking… everything works fine with emule, but i can’t block or limit ARES…
I´m testing MT 2.9.26 demo version
any help?
ps.sorry for my poor english
You can´t limit ares, you can only drop it
you can limit p2p that way - set bandiwth for http, ftp and other well known protocols and for the rest of traffic set harsh limits 
so - any unknown protocol will be limited - ares, encrypted bittorent etc.
Yes, that would be a good workaround, but, not a solution…
i can’t even drop Ares… how should I configure MT to drop Ares¿? gimme the syntax. Sorry if it sounds too “pretencioso” (i don’t know how to say that word in english), but i´m really new in MT stuff.
‘ip firewall filter add action=drop p2p=warez chain=forward’.
it doesn’t work for me
look at this screenshot
i highlighted in red the telnet screen where i created the firewall rule, ares downloading 
and the winbox with the connections list.
why ares still works even if i drop it¿?
Move the rule to top
Maxi
it’s the only rule
did you add that rule before the connection was estabilshed? then it’s a no-go, restart connection (reboot) and then see
I shutdown the MT, then turn off my pc…
then turn on the MT, then turn on my pc..
then started Ares… anddddddddddd… Ares still rules the situation…
Are there any more P2P formats that can’t be limited and should be dropped?
i try sometime stop ares, the news version of ares is encrypted, and mk no stop, the other p2p yes,
i am thinking need time for study or sniff the ares,
the old version of ares, mk can stop
best regars
is it possible to detect encrypted Ares packets?
Will MT detect them someday?
P2P are a headache for networks administrators… and one of the most important feature i see in MT is the ability to detect (drop or control) P2P.
I´m want to migrate to MT.. but first i want to know… Now MT can’t stop one of the most popular p2p clientes … but will stop it one day¿? in future versions…
There are no Question for KoloRasta ??? some day you gonna support this?? 
hello,
my mt is blocking ares try to drop all p2p and see if that works for you.
are you sure??? install last version of Ares, run it and wait for some minutes and see what happens… and then tell me the results..
suerte viejita!!!
Normis you tell us that you tested the rule to drop warez…
I know the rule must be added and taked to the top of the list, and the router rebooted to it works.
In this case the Ares client never get conected again (in prior versions of ARES)… It`s that the solution?? I must tell you the client still get the download of the queued files, and the problem is not solved, PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME TEST IT.
You never gonna implement a better solution??? We must drop the ports…? Thanks to Kolo !!!
Aguante Viejita !!!
Kolorasta,
Well, I downloaded the new version and installed in my computer, version 1.9.2.3011.
Still working as before! No traffic is going through, ARES does not connect…
just do this:
add chain=forward p2p=all-p2p connection-state=established action=drop comment=“p2p” disabled=no
dont use any queues or any mangles for p2p just the filter rule and try it.
