Good Day Sir, I'm using PFSense v 2.0.3 and is it possible that I can block a certain IP from accessing a certain site?
example 192.168.10.1 with 255.255.255.0
he/she can't access a site like
facebook or youtube?
thank you

A few ways you can do this.
If its a Windows PC, you can edit the hosts and lmhosts file on the windows pc itself.

Well you can add any block rule you like, so just create a block rule on the lan from any source to a destination ip address, then any pc on the lan which tries to go to the ip address will get blocked.
