      Hi There,

      I have multiple client interfaces and subnets in my setup, and I want to know if it's possible to assign different pfBlocker blocked lists to specific interfaces. For example, can I configure users on Interface A to be affected by one set of blocked lists, while users on Interface B are affected by a different set?"

      Or is it one set of blocked lists / settings for everyone?

        @Mr_JinX AFAIK one set only, however, if you enable Python mode there is a "group policy" setting that appears, where you can exclude by IP.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

            @Mr_JinX For the time being, I setup a cluster of VMs on a second box to run separate instances of pfBlockerNG/pfSense to be additional DNS servers/DNSBL configurations to run along side my bare metal for this same basic purpose. Similar will be possible in the near future to have VMs or LXC containers of pfSense nested inside a base bare-metal pfSense instance once the project migrates over to the Linux kernel as announced at the beginning of the year

              I think that was a 1 April inspired post
