Hi There,
I guess you have taken a look at the Help Menu, but if not, here is what it says about blocking a range. I know this is probably not exactly what you are trying to do (say IP Address's 100.0.0.0 > 200.0.0.0 etc.), but maybe it's a help.
*************************************************************
HELP INDEX: IP Blackhole
Network Extensions - IP Blackhole
Ban a Range of IPs - You may also add entire ranges of IP addresses to your ban list. In the screenshot below, (not include here) for example, the 4th IP on the list has a ‘0’ on the end – as does its mask. This means that all machines on the same subnet as this IP, are now also banned from your network.
Note: Ensure the ‘Enable IP Blackhole list’ box is checked to make the driver check for these IPs. Failure to do this means that IPs on your blackhole list may still be allowed onto your network.

What you may want to ask Qbik Team for, is a future "BAN ALL - WITH EXCEPTION OF" type option. I haven't a clue if this is easy or hard for them to plan for a future version of the software, but it would most likely also depend on how many users are interested in this facility.
Nothing more.
Regards, Warren
