I think Zenarmor is the route for me, i'm looking for a content filter solution for an elementary school and figured I'd explore pfSense as a solution over the weekend and ended up on OPNsense, it does about 80% of what I need through unbound but just needed an additional category for keeping the kids off of games. I'll trial zenarmor this week and hopfully it does everything I need it to and I can recommend the purchase of an appliance.

Thank you for your help. One hanging question I still have is, if I were to use OPNsence as my router would I be able to filter all traffic regardless of client device dns preferences?

i've just tried setting my OPNSense LAN address as my prefered DNS server and it works.

Is there a way to set this up so that it isn't so easily bypassed?

I'm attempting to set up OPNSense as a Content filter I have my LAN Ip set up and can access the OPNSense Device through the web portal, the OPNSense Device is using DHCP to get its WAN address and is connected to the internet.

I have enabled Unbound DNS:Blocklist
Force SafeSearch: ON
Type of DNSBL :All Porn List; PornTop1M List;Blocklist.site Porn

Apply

This does nothing.

I have thought that maybe I have to set my client default gateway to the OPNSense WAN Address, this results in internet loss.


My OPNSense device is connected to a ISP Router which is using a non public ip address. both the WAN and LAN ports are connected to in integrated switch and the cliet device is wired to the integrated switch.

Is there something I am missing?
