Alan,
I'm fairly confused about most things and my lab is in 3 weeks. However, I do
know the answer to your question: Using icanreach for a certain mac will not
stop all other explorers, to do that you need to say Icannotreach everything
which is done very simply with you I can reach statement by including the
exclusive key work. It seems today that my explaining abilities are also a
little off so here's a quote from CCO:
"The dlsw icanreach command also supports the mac-exclusive and
netbios-exclusive keywords, which indicate that the resources advertised by
this peer are the only resources the peer can reach. By specifying
mac-exclusive or netbios-exclusive, you can indicate that the list of
specified MAC addresses or NetBIOS names are the only ones reachable from a
given router."
That quote came from here if you need more research:

Hope that helps!
