      So I have configured my pfsense+squid (with SSL interception) server and now my users connect to internet via squid proxy. But now there are some users like managers should access to some websites that I blocked them in squid blacklist. So is there any way to let some users bypass blacklist? For example create a group like users and managers. users group should obey blacklist and managers group should allowed to access.

        @persia1364 The same page with the Squid Blacklist has an Unrestricted IPs list. Add their IPs to that list.

          @kom Thank you for your reply. If I could set user name instead of IP address it was a good solution but now users can change their IP address and can bypass my blacklist!
          Is there any way I can set user name or PC MAC address for unrestricted IPs?

            @persia1364 Yes I believe that you can install Squidguard, configure the LDAP integration and then filter based on usernames but this is not simple and I have not tried it myself.
