Website domain name block not working
«

Hi, I want to block certain website domains for the whole network. I've setup bbc.co.uk as an alias and created an alias with it added called Blocked_Internet_Sites. I've created the rule in LAN above the other rules but its not being blocked. FIREWALL: DIAGNOSTICS: ALIASES shows the bbc.co.uk IP addresses.
Please see attached screenshots. What have I done wrong?
Thanks

This alias needs to go into the destination field. You want to prohibit connections
from
LAN
to
Blocked_Internet_Sites.
