Web filter policy to remove ads

Rosen Georgiev over 4 years ago

Hello All,

Could it be possible someone to help me with web filter policy.

The goal is to remove the annoying ads from web pages for my home network.

Im using adblockplus, but can we do this using XF Firewall 18, and exclude ads for the whole network generaly.

Thanks in advance.
