Snort & openappid-streaming_media rules.

@NogBadTheBad Already tried that but it blocks the host ip address, only need netflix blocked
-
You could try blocking them by AS number. Looks like AS2906 from a quick google. Plug that into pfBlocker to make an alias.
Or add it manually:

Hello @OpenWifi, did you tried @stephenw10 ASN_List suggestion, does it work?
I guess if it does not you can always extract the IP's manually and add them in:

The IP's you obtained using Netflix were not hosted by the AS ?
If not, whois the IP, locate the AS, and add that also to the list. -

Never used whois with pfBlockerNG but have used ASN.

ASN is not an option for me. Are you running pfBlocker-dev?
Whois is the correct option in the non-dev package:
Whois:
Convert a Domain name or AS into its respective IP addresses.Steve

Ah I'm running dev

this works for me
