I am a bit confused, ergo I need some clarification:

One of my 'Aliases' is the Yoyo list which I used to configure a Firewall rule for both LAN and WAN (as per documentation).
Now, I've actually realised (better later than ever) I have the same Yoyo list in Unboubnd--> Blacklist -->  Type of DNSBL, so my question is: do I have to delete both rules in LAN and WAN or just in LAN ?

I was thinking that if I keep the rule in WAN that would prevent those IP addresses to connect to my client(s) or they would be blocked anyway thanks to Unbound?

Tia.

It's probably a silly question, but I'm still learning  ::)

I am not sure which way is better, firewall rules or dnsbl,  but I cannot figure out how to populate the list into an "Alias". How did you accomplish this?


Yes, thank you. I have many aliases set up this way. As far as I can tell they will only populate with a*.txt file. I cannot find a file of this format for the yoyo list. Have you?

Not sure I understood, but if you want the IPs list, you can use this URL: https://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/iplist.php?ipformat=plain&showintro=0&mimetype=plaintext
