      @johnpoz said in Blocking traffic to some internal ip addresses:

      BTW @conor are you running that many boxes on 2.4.2 code?

      Haven't bothered to update the signature, running more than that now anyway.

      200+ pfSense installs - best firewall ever.

          Here you go - for fun, took 2 minutes to setup..

          I created basic html page on one of my local boxes 192.168.3.32 running nginx (httpd)

          Then created a port forward, with source only my boxes IP 192.168.9.100 to send 80 traffic to 3.32..

          Made sure the rule on the network client connected to (lan in my case) was top of the list.. And there you go try to go to some http site and get the website instead..

          Not going to work with https, because they would get error on cert not matching... But you could just block https..

                sure seems to be blocking show 1.17MB of hits on it already

                Also your dns rule, should also allow tcp.. And should really be lan address, not the whole net.

                And just to be curious - why do you block paying customers from using whatever dns they want?

                        spamming - ie sending emails is not dns queries.
