Hello @rezafathi ,

 

You can use quarantine action in the IPS profile. Also, you can determine quarantine time in this action.

If you want to get more information about configuring IPS profile, you can review this document.

Hello, @rezafathi 

 

You can use the KB mentioned below. You will be able to create a automation stitch which would automatically add the rouge IP's in a group and then you can use that group in a firewall policy to block the access.
