    @thedarktangent maybe I misunderstood the problem. If you don’t want resolution you set RPZ for cdn.network.com to resolve to a blocked landing page IP, return NXDOMAIN, etc

    If you’re looking for this to also involve packet filtering, yes my option doesn’t do that. But if you can enforce DNS through your RPZ resolver, no one except those in an “allow” policy will be able to resolve an IP for that name.

    @ckure But nothing to stop someone from connecting directly to any IP address they want?

    @thedarktangent right, RPZ is like a DNS firewall. Intercepts requests and uses a policy to return customized results (blocked or rewritten responses). No layer 3 protection inherent to it. If you can connect to the IP and send eg host header, you’ll bypass the RPZ bc you’re not resolving its name
