u-r-grounded

A NodeJS web app for easily blocking internet access for devices via pfSense NAT rules

Caveats

I only have access to iOS devices, so this will render best on an iOS device. It should still look reasonable in just about any modern web browser.

Prerequisites

You must install and configure the API for pfSense (see https://github.com/jaredhendrickson13/pfsense-api).

pfSense Setup

  1. Create an alias (Firewall → Aliases) for each device to be blocked.
  2. Create firewall rules on the LAN adapter to block each alias. Be sure to create the rules before/above the final "Default allow LAN to any rule" rule.
    a. Action: Reject b. Disabled: Disable this rule (checked) c. Interface: LAN d. Address Family: IPv4+IPv6 e. Protocol: Any f. Source: Single host or alias and enter/select the alias

Config

Copy config.js.example to config.js and set the options below.

  • devices:
  • alias_name : friendly device name
  • http_port: HTTP port to listen on
  • pfsense:
  • address - The DNS or IP address of pfSense
  • protocol - The procotol (HTTP or HTTPS) used to access pfSense
  • port - The TCP port pfSense is listening on
  • client_id - The client ID for the pfSense API
  • client_token - The client token for the pfSense API
