Unfortunately, I'm having some trouble understanding what you try to achieve.

In general, you can not use directed advertising with an iOS device, since it changes its address every once ina while. You can however use whitelisting based on the IRK, if you only want previously bonded devices to connect.

There is no built-in way to ban a specific device from connecting (there is no blacklisting). If you want to achieve this, you'll have to do some other tricks, for example changing the Bluetooth address so that the device looks like a new one to the Central. However, in most cases except for HID, connection from the iOS device is app-controlled, so you should be able to tell your app that it shouldn't try to reconnect, by for example sending a notification on a specific characteristic or similar.

If I don't answer your question, can you please edit it and expand it a little?
