Nxfilter not working with pfsense captive portal
-
I have a pfSense 2.6.0 server pointing DNS to NxFilter on Ubuntu Server, but I have a VLAN 51 that is WiFi for clients. When connecting, they are not redirected to the pfSense Captive Portal page, but if I remove the pointer to NxFilter, the Captive Portal page appears for clients.
On other VLANs that do not use Captive Portal, it is working normally.
My network:
pfSense: 10.10.1.2 (VLAN 1)
NxFilter: 10.10.1.8 (VLAN 1)
Administrative: 10.50.0.0/24 (VLAN 50) - working
WiFi: 10.51.0.0/23 (VLAN 51) - not working with Captive Portal -
It worked! I needed to add the NxFilter IP in Captive Portal > Allowed IP Addresses... however, for blocked sites, for example in the Porn category, the NxFilter blocking page is not displayed, it just keeps rotating the browser without accessing the site. I will continue looking for a solution for this.
