      Good afternoon, Netgate masters.

      I hope everyone is okay!
      I don't have in-depth knowledge of Firewalls, but the company I work for has PFSense 2.7.0
      I have to block the Youtube website on my network, but my network has hosts with Windows Pro and Windows Home. Knowing that devices with Windows Home do not adhere to firewall rules because they do not have support for domains, I send you my request for help.
      How to resolve this issue?
      Sorry for my English, but I don't speak the language.

      I would be very grateful for any ideas that can help me!
      Thank you very much in advance!

        Go to firewall menu and select pfBlockerNG > DNSBL, scroll down until you see TLD Blacklist/whitelist...click on the plus symbol...you should see below and add youtube.com. Save, update and reload. Remember to clear browser cache on all devices.
