      WAN–--cable modem-----firewall------switch(and a couple servers)--------[eth0(external)–--bridge0----eth1(internal)]–-----guest

      The filtering bridge is all configured and working but we also want to restrict certain websites to prevent access to some adult websites we wanted to have a rule set to redirect them to a page served up by one of the local web servers. Currently we are flat out discarding the traffic but would rather be redirecting users who attempt to a page reporting that this connection is available for those type of activities, any ideas?

        I personally use opendns.com to stop pr0n from entering my network, there's also an option within the opendns dashboard to add individual ip's to the block list if needed.

        hope that helps

          True, but can pfsense with the built-in firewalling functionality redirect?
