        I want to create the aliases using domain name to block the access to particular website or to use a URL which contains the website of a particular category like shallade black list. I don't want to use the DNS IP I want to use the DNS name.

          Yes it is possible. Just create an alias containing the FQDN and use this as a destination object in a firewall rule.

          Please use the thumbs up button if you received a helpful advice. Thank you!

            pfBlockerNG

            Block by the ASN number or I think you can use a TLD.

            An example using Facebook.

            Use deny outbound or use it to create an alias.

                @kom Thank you.. But I am not going to block it with the DNS IP address but with the DNS name.

                  @nogbadthebad Thank you for the wonderful representation. I am so happy for your effort. Can I assign host based blocking in the network with this method?

                        Never used it but there's a bit at the bottom:-

                        I still think you'd be better blocking by AS number.

                            @nogbadthebad I understand that part. How to create an alias for blocking pfsense by pfblockerng? I am very new to pf blockerng. I also have paid blacklist service. Can I load that to pfblockerng?

                              • Instal lpfBlockerNG-devel

                              • Run the setup wizard , define your inbound and outbound interface.

                              • Create a rule Firewall -> pfBlockerNG -> IP -> IPv4 as per my screenshot but set it as deny outbound

                              • Run update via Firewall -> pfBlockerNG -> Update, the firewall rules will automatically be created

                              The rules will automatically be created on the inbound and outbound interfaces, give it a go, its quite easy.

                              Re the paid block list you can, depending on the format, it basically creates tables that are used in firewall rules, check the tables out via Diagnostics -> Tables

                                @nogbadthebad Hello.. Thank you for your support. I am sorry for the delay in the reply. I was doing a whole new set up. I have multi wan failover setup done. So in PfblockerNG, The Inbound interface --> WAN1 & WAN2 and The outbound interface --> LAN. Is it the right method?

                                    @nogbadthebad I am having multiple vlans created in pfsense. Then I think the outbound interface should be all the vlans.

                                          It's deny outbound.

                                          Get it working with ASN numbers they play with the social networking source after.

                                            I've just tried it and its an issue with your block list as it doesn't contain valid IP addresses just 0.0.0.0 FQDN.

                                            PfB_Test_v4 Table
                                            IP Address
                                            123.41.54.45
                                            130.211.230.53
                                            160.41.54.45
                                            163.41.54.45
                                            194.41.54.45

                                            Rather than using IP try using the DBNS
