[QUOTE="valvaris, post: 857152, member: 38787"] Project Update and Experience The Project was to have an eBlocker go to a Pi-Hole (Uplink DNS) and that one to Unbound to have a direct recursive DNS route to the Root DNS Servers. With features enabled like DNSsec for SSL Chain Verification and Monitoring. How was the Setup? Have to say super easy Pi-hole has a very well documented website and the installation and preparation for Unbound was awesome. The Performance? A little meh... at first until the DNS requests were cached and then wooow it was fast. But still the performance could be allot better if eBlocker was Raspberry 4 compatible... (More Processing Power and 1Gbit/Ethernet Interface) - Reason is that HTTPS Inspection costs allot of horsepower and since the device acts as a gateway all traffic goes thru that first (Raspberry 3 - 100Mbit/Ethernet Interface)... -.- Conclusion Nice to have but needs allot of fine tuning (eBlocker Raspberry 4 Support) and Whitelisting of URLs needed for eBlocker (Desktop Apps & Smartphone Apps that do not like to be SSL Inspected) - Plus the added administration of Pi-hole DNS Query's. Sincerely Val. P.S. ATM I run Adguard Home DNS with Unbound and wait for it ...... DNSsec - Yap got it to work without a certificate on the Adguard somehow?! [/QUOTE]
