I am looking to block all the HTTP access in the local lan network with some exception. (Whitelist) .Please advice
Unofficial package e2guardian is what I’m using, the install seems to be the hardest part. Wish it was an official package because it would be a lot easier.
Search for the terms “e2guardian” “blanket block” or “walled garden”. There is a decent install procedure out on the web too, but can’t remember exactly where right now.
Thanks Tom, Make sense
Thanks Greg , i will check
Hi there,
This is my setup and it works great.
I want to filter web content at the DNS level.
So I run pfSense (10.127.1.254) as the main firewall/router and on a separate device I have NxFilter (10.127.1.240) to filter the DNS content which works great.
BUT
If i change the DNS address on device level to the IP of any other DNS Server it auto-bypass the NxFilter which I understand it will do, thus have I implemented firewall rules to block access to any other dns server, firewall rules as follow.
Allow
Protocol Source Port Destination Port Gateway Description
IPv4 TCP/UDP * * 127.0.0.1 53 (DNS) * NAT Redirect DNS
IPv4 TCP/UDP * * 10.127.1.240 53 (DNS) * Allow Net DNS to NXFilter
Block
Protocol Source Port Destination Port Gateway Description
IPv4 TCP/UDP * * * 53 (DNS) * Block All other DNS Servers
Then I made the primary DNS Server on pfSense to be 10.127.1.240(which is my nxFilter) and the secondary DNS Server 1.1.1.1 and on NxFilter I have made my upstream DNS Server 10.127.1.254 which points back to pfSense.
(if you use the above)
Then you can filter the whitelist with nxFilter.
Thanks , I will try the Nx filter
