Hi all
I have recently started using opnsense instead of pfsense.
It seems more straight forward to setup.
It is virtuaised in proxmox.
A couple of containers i was using have been replaced, like pihole & tor. Now their functionality is in opnsense.
I have another pihole container on proxmox which is a special case for my android TV.
Typically phole downloads blocklists and filters using them.
In this case I have EVERYTHING blocked by default using DNS . I allow traffic for particular apps based on regular expressions. No blocklists are used.
It was a little tricky so setup, but now it works as I wish.
In case anyone is curious smart TVs are spying on you a lot. The pihole the TV uses has a block rate of 95%. It is constantly trying to call home.
So my TV will be on its own LAN. I need a method of blocking/allowing traffic based on regular expressions.
I have tried to set the tv proxy to the web proxy and block all other traffic from it. Most apps would not work.
I need a way of using regualr expressions to block/allow traffic.
A web proxy is no good there as some apps on the it seems do not use standerd web traffic.
I wish to buy a low lower PC to use as a opnsense router and use ther present server as a NAS & maybe jellyfin.
Before that I need the proxmox containers I have with tor, pihole end others to be have their function replaced in the router instead.
Useful info is appreciated.
Thanks
AdGuard plugin in OPN and test the regexes on AdGuard?
Thanks. I will look into it.
