    To ban via ip go to dashboard > Moderation (on left) >Ban list >add item

    You will see a dropdown called 'Ban Type' which offers either of three choices: IP, Email, Name. choose IP then in the field below called 'Ban Value' add the ip address you want to ban. There is a third 'optional' field called notes, where you can leave some text for your own info, e.g 'Troll' etc.

    You can enter a ban for the same person, using each of the three Ban Types.

    General banning is done by putting the user in the "banned" usergroup, so edit the user and change his usergroup.
    Banning by IP address... I don't know about that one.
