shane_foley Not sure what your location is, or what you are trying to block, but for us we are in the US and trying to block non-US connection attempts. To accomplish this we setup a location for US IPv6 addresses and added all of the US IPv6 blocks:
2001:4800::/23
2001:0400::/23
2001:1800::/23
2001:4800::/23
2600:0000::/12
2610:0000::/23
2620:0000::/23
2630:0000::/12

But here in Australia, when I find a website that generates a list of IPv6 blocks, the list is ~1500 long.
