FYI: OPNsense now has pretty (good) Unbound DNS reporting (docs.opnsense.org)

Today I decided I would create some way of visualizing my unbound DNS requests/blocks on OPNsense. Adguard does a good job at this but I have issue with added third party repos and plugins, especially at the router level.

Anyway...since the last time I've dug into this OPNsense has built in Unbound DNS reporting (since 23.1) and it's amazing! Arguably just as good as Pihole or Adguard. Graphs, lists of top blocked and allowed domains, query logs, quick buttons to block or whitelist next to each domain. I'm impressed.

Not sure if this is the right community, but just wanted to share if some of you weren't aware of this option.

Wyse 5070 thin clients are cheap on ebay and work great.

How do you deal with only 1 Ethernet port?

Vlan to managed switch? USB Ethernet adapter?

Also, is this powerful enough for a symmetrical 1gig connection?

I run it on a Fujitsu Futro S720 thin client (bought for 40€ on ebay) with a VLAN aware switch. I know the Futro is not available in the US, but there is an HP thin client similar to it.

Theres a NIC that uses the WiFi m.2 socket and mounts in th thin client option port.

Ive been running it at full speed on symmetrical gigabit pppoe with opnsense for a while. Works great.

I use vlans to work with it.
