Parental Control

[FrancescoVec]

Hello, I work for an ISP in Italy and we have to give the end user the possibility of filtering their traffic with respect to specific categories, there are 8 categories (gambling, adult content, etc.) and it must be able to select any combination of these categories at will. I thought of implementing it using nxcloud and the api calls to make the user make changes and I thought of using the "group" to add and delete the various policies, so as to avoid creating a policy for each combination of the 8 categories.
But from what I see I don't have group class in nxcloud but only in nxfilter. Do you have suggestions on how the project can be implemented?
Thank you

On NxCloud, there's no group as you can't differentiate users behind a router in a normal way. If you use NxRelay then you can associate a private IP range to a user. It means it works as a group of private IPs. And you also can use NxProxy wiht one Login Token for multiple users. Then they will appear as 'token_username' on NxCloud and it works as a group of users as well.

and if I don't want to discriminate the traffic of the ip behind the router, but filter all the traffic of that connection? the problem seems to remain

Then it's already a group. You associate a site behind a router to a user by its IP or using NxUpdate. So, it's a group.

Surely I'm not clear on the thing, what do you mean by site?
in nxcloud I see the subdivision in user and operator, can you be more specific please?
Could the ultimate customer change his policies by adding and removing a single category?

Your customers become operators. They will have operator accounts. And they want to filter their sites behind a router. Maybe a company or a household. They create a user and associate the IP of their router to the user and they can assign a policy to the user. In this way, they can filter multiple sites or offices even.

NxCloud is for cloud based DNS filtering. Basically, your customers don't filter users one by one. They filter thier site as a whole. Of course, we have other ways like NxRealy or NxProxy for user level filtering.

What's 'adding and removing a single category'? We have 56 categories in Jahaslist. You can select/unselect these categories in one policy. Is not what you want?

I'll do some tests and update you, in the meantime, thank you for your kindness

Unfortunately, once the call has been configured, it sends me back to the block page, I have eliminated the condition of calls allowed only from localhost. suggestions?

You have to associate 10.126.10.227 to some user. Did you do it?

If it's a dynamic IP, you can use NxUpdate. https://tutorial.nxfilter.org/d-nxup...-ip-update.php
