Block Facebook Content In Mikrotik

Posted by Admin Tuesday, July 31, 2012 4 comments


If your broadband network operates through a MiktroTik router, then you can block your children and others in your household from accessing Facebook. To do this, you must have WinBox, a console application that allows you to fine-tune all your MikroTik router settings.
With it, you can log directly into your router via your computer and then submit specific terminal commands to block any and all Facebook Internet content. Difficulty:
Easy Instructions
  1. Launch WinBox, and log in to your router account. 
  2. Click the "New Terminal" button in the left menu. 
  3. Type the following commands into the terminal, and press enter after typing each command:
/ip firewall filter add chain=forward content="facebook.com" action=drop comment="Drop Facebook" /ip firewall filter add chain=forward content="www.facebook.com" action=drop comment="Drop Facebook"

/ip firewall filter add chain=forward content="apps.facebook.com" action=drop comment="Drop Facebook"

/ip firewall filter add chain=forward content="facebook" action=drop comment="Drop Facebook" /ip firewall filter add chain=forward content="facebook.*" action=drop comment="Drop Facebook"

One "small" problem - it blocks also webpages that use xfbml for "like" buttons etc. I would like to block facebook, but allow or replace any fb-related content on other webpages.
Ofc iframes may be blocked.

There will be no problem with xfbml for "like" buttons and iframe and etc - if use action "TCP Reset".
