Title: Unbound DNS BL
Post by: jclendineng on September 26, 2021, 02:35:06 AM
I just set up a blocklist in unbound, testing a migration from pihole, where do I see blocks? If I cant see blocks I cant really use it, as DNS false positives are common and I need to be able to see random blocks and deal with them if needed.  Is this possible? If we had a firewall logs-like list that would be very nice. Thanks!

sorry, no help, but maybe you could share your experience with the switch, cause I am thinking about switching from pihole to opnsense too.
I really like the way things are done in pihole, but with vlans and serving DHCP by opnsense it's less compfortable.

There is no easy interface for unbound DNSBL.

Better install adguard home from the community repo - it offers similar functionality to pihole, including a nice Interface.

Where do I find this plugin? Searching the plugins-section does not give me adguard.

It's in there after you install this additional repo: https://www.routerperformance.net/opnsense-repo/

Aw.  Completely forgot about plugin, thanks! Ill have to give it another shot.  I used dnsbl in unbound and could not find the logs without tailing them via ssh so thats obviously a terrible implementation, as if (when) something doesnt load right for my wife, I cant be ssh'ing into the firewall just to whitelist a random entry :D

Ill give that plugin a shot
