+ 1st option

At the http level:

geo $forbidden_client {
default 0;
1.0.0.0/8 1;
12.0.0.0/8 1;
}

server {
# ...

error_page 418 /custom_message.html;

if ($forbidden_client) {
return 418;
}
}


+ 2nd option


server {
# ...

error_page 403 /custom_message.html;

deny 1.0.0.0/8;
deny 12.0.0.0/8;
allow all;
}
