This makes managing the 1588+ and growing TLDs on the internet today quite cumbersome. The Unifi UI does allow for specific blocking of top level domains however, as with most vendors, it is a block only option. In addition, any number of lists can be designated “Global” which applies the list to all networks without specification in a policy. This means that these Allow/Block lists can be created and assigned to a single or multiple policies allowing admins to manage the impact on any number of networks from a single object. ScoutDNS offers the ability to have multiple separate Allow/Block lists designed as objects. You add entries into either the allow or block line and can remove them later by clicking the “x” next to the domain. With Unifi the custom allowing or blocking of domains is very simple, yet cumbersome to manage beyond a few entries. You can find a detailed explanation of the content categories here. Everything from multiple options for Safe Search and Three YouTube modes, to 6 categories of threats, 54 categories of content, and 16 categories of applications. On ScoutDNS admins have granular control over what is blocked or allowed. Malicious and Phishing domains are blocked. Google, Bing, and YouTube are set to the Safe Mode. Mixed content sites (like Reddit) are also blocked. It also blocks proxy and VPN domains that are used to bypass the filters. Family Safeīlocks access to all adult, pornographic and explicit sites. Google and Bing are set to the “Safe Mode”. It does not block proxy or VPNs, nor mixed-content sites. Block Adultīlocks access to all adult, pornographic and explicit sites. Note that it does not block adult content. The database of malicious domains is updated hourly. According to Unifi documentation the filtering options are as follows: Securityīlocks access to phishing, spam, malware, and malicious domains. There is no way to select specific categories or chose level of safe search or YouTube restrictions. Selecting Family Filter or Block Adult will also add the Security blocks as well.
The selection for filter settings is very limited. Let’s look at a few of the options and compare to what you might get with ScoutDNS. It’s worth noting of course that much of this is clearly listed as Beta or in the Content Filtering case, marked as Alpha and should be treated as such.

In this post we will discuss why ScoutDNS is such a good option for Unifi networks users. A good 20%+ of our user base operates on Unifi hardware and as such we often get asked about Unifi features and configurations. In this post we will take an in-depth look at Unifi content filtering.
