Unable to block on pfsense
-
Hi everyone,
I was originally trying to block facebook using pfsense. I followed this guide ( https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=43837.0 ) but was unable to block facebook. I figured it was because facebook had so many ips so I decided to try with another website with one ip. However, I am unable to block that website either.
The website is eyedonation.org (ip: 184.154.245.184)
I tried creating an alias and a rule for it. But again, I was able to access the site.
I then tried the DNS forwarder and was unsuccessful at blocking the site too.
I am still able to go to eyedonation.org
I have attached images below for a clearer look at what I did.
Please advise.
Thanks for your time!

If only we could see your actual LAN firewall rules…

Is this what you meant?

Just as I thought.
Firewall rules are processed top-down, first-match. Since your block rules are AFTER your Allow All rules, of course nothing will be blocked. Move them up ahead of the Allow All rules.

Thank you so much! :)
