    How could I go about limiting a computer's network access to google classroom resources only? It's difficult to identify all IP addresses and pfsense cannot make firewall rules based on domain names, can it?

    Thanks.

      That would require deep packet inspection. The URL is part of the HTTP header, but beyond that, no. As I understand it, Google often uses the same IP addresses for the various services, so you couldn't filter on that.

      i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
      UniFi AC-Lite access point

      I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
