Firmware's like Asuswrt-Merlin or OpenWRT can support dynamic-dns, or you can do like I do and run something like OPNsense in an x86 VM with a NIC passed through, or buy an inexpensive firewall appliance (up to 500mbps/1gbps/10gbps). Source: 5 months ago
The easiest solution is to buy your own router, set it up, disable the router functionality on the Fritzbox 7590 and plug your router into it. It'll be cheaper and easier than a Cisco Firewall, but if you want to go the dedicated firewall route then I would recommenced OPNsense. Source: 5 months ago
BSDs may not have a significant presence on desktops, but they're well known in the networking world for their reliability. They also were the foundation used to build OSes for specific applications. OpnSense and XigmaNAS, for example, are two excellent FreeBSD based applications aimed at firewalling/security and NAS/services. https://opnsense.org/ https://xigmanas.com/xnaswp/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
For switches? OpenWrt supports a few models toward the lower end, and SONiC support a bunch at the higher-end datacenter ToR market, but none of these options are SME production-ready like Linux servers or OPNsense firewalls. Source: 11 months ago
That’s a stupid policy, and it looks like one of my UDMs is defective. I’m an idiot for not just buying good quality open boxes and putting https://opnsense.org/ on them. 🤦🏻♂️. Source: 11 months ago
You may already know this, but gufw is simply a graphical front-end to the Uncomplicated Firewall (ufw) service. Fedora uses the Firewalld back-end service instead of ufw. I believe you would need to replace Firewalld with ufw entirely in order to make gufw a plausible solution. Source: about 1 year ago
I just started using ufw https://launchpad.net/ufw and I found that it only shows --help for the root command. Source: over 2 years ago
Why do you think Gufw is proprietary? It's FOSS, licensed as GPL v3, as documented here. Source: almost 3 years ago
Another option is to use UFW and rate limit incoming packets. Because it's a firewall, it will block the queries even before they hit Pi-hole, but it might be a tad more tricky to set up. I also don't know if you can set it as a limitation per client or only in general (per port/rule). I'll leave that for you to investigate further. Source: about 3 years ago
