Web and Content Filter

[illki]

Hi,

is the web and content filter is already available in OPNsense?

Thanks in advance for reply.

[sagem2004]

Yes and no is quite limited

[illki]

is this feature in the roadmap? the way it is kerio or ipfire or etc...

I'm not sure what's in ipfire or kerio for web content filtering, OPNsense contains blacklisting using remote content lists. score based filtering like dansguardian provides is not on the list.

Adding remote blacklists is quite easy, just go to "Remote Access Control Lists" and add content providers in either plain text or tar.gz format.
We are looking in to adding some predefined sets for easier selection.

[sagem2004]

for example :

http://wiki.ipfire.org/_detail/en/configuration/network/proxy/urlcategories.jpg?id=en%3Aconfiguration%3Anetwork%3Aproxy%3Aurl-filter

You can add lists for categories, you can use http://dsi.ut-capitole.fr/blacklists/index_en.php for example.
Every category at their end is a compressed list, which can be used instantly.

Use ftp://ftp.ut-capitole.fr/pub/reseau/cache/squidguard_contrib/malware.tar.gz for example to block malware.

thanks for an answer, looking forward to availability of predefined sets

Just to make sure that this is not miscommunicated: you can block per category, all it takes is to set up each category with a specific link. That does satisfy your requirement.

as i understood content filtering is now a main feature
thanks
