      Seems pretty straight forward made alias with approved sites to pass traffic
      one below it to deny all others. For some reason the block rule is working but the pass rule is not.

        Look at the IP addresses in the table (Diagnostics > Tables)

        Compare with the IP addresses your computer is trying to connect to.

        They will be different.

        You will probably need to use a more sophisticated alias creation method such as pfBlockerNG to have a prayer at filtering like that.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          @Derelict thanks so much I will check that out. I was following this youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yScnDnrNkhM) and thought maybe its because i have a older version of pfsense 2.3.2 that it wasn't working.

            @Derelict I am basically wanting to try it with just 1 stations first then a group of IP's in my call center which is why i was hoping this would work. I will try and make a custom list with pfblocker and enable domain/AS and pray lol.

              You should update.

                @Derelict I know I just didn't want to affect a client that we have constant vpn connections to 5 sites. I know a update shouldn't affect that but seems like any time I make a change something happens which has given me a type of superstition lol. They will be off service as of July 1st that was my plan to update Pfsense then. I am a huge PFsense fan boy and have been super impressed with it though thanks for taking the time to respond to me as well really appreciate it and answered my suspicions.
