PFSense - pfBlockerNG - Test

Testing By Browsing

NOTE: On many sites, ads will be missing, but white or gray boxes will be seen where an ad normally would have been.

Some ads may still be served such as video ads on YouTube.

Those ads cannot be blocked via pfBlockerNG since the ad content is served from the same domain names (DNS) as the video content.


Testing from the command line

Normally, pinging a site will return the sites actual IP address.

However, with pfBlockerNG properly setup you may instead see a reply of 10.10.10.1, which is the default virtual IP address DNSBL creates.
