      Hi All Forum Members. I have a question regarding website blocking through pfsense firewall.
      I am trying to block website ie. facebook.com, yatra.com.Its getting block but after some times like 2mins or 3 mins its automatically getting unblock and easily accessable facebook and yatra website. I tried to block from below steps:

      1. Created alias for yatra and facebook along with IP address for both sites.
      2. Created firewall block rule on LAN Interface IP4- TCP/UDP-Source Interface LAN- Destination (single host or alias) created for facebook.

      I have done blocking from pfblocker NG but still i am unable to block my website.

      Any suggestions/ Support?

      Regards,
      DB

        Read Aliases, especially the Warning and the Note.
        Facebook uses thousand of IPs. Not 'one'.

        You have to look up what an "ASN" is, and how to use use it with pfBlockerng-devel.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
