Use the "-m time" match.
You can match on:
- earliest time of day a packet may match
- latest time of day a packet may match
- day of week a packet may match
- earliest date a packet may match
- latest date a packet may match
You could set up one rule matching the 12 hour slot you want to restrict some
users not to be able to use, and jump to a user-defined chain which checks
for the IPs you want to block during that 12 hour period.
