Today I want to introduce a new category and a new tutorial series: The AWS Tutorial Series. This series is specifically focused on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in combination with pfSense.
pfSense
pfSense is the most popular Open Source firewall. If you want to secure your home network or your small business, or you just want to learn more about firewalls in general, our pfSense Tutorials will teach you all of that and more.
Improve surfing speed with pfSense using Namebench
In this guide, I will show you how to improve surfing speed with pfSense using Namebench.
Namebench is a DNS benchmarking tool that measures the response time of your DNS servers and compares it to other publicly available DNS servers.
Backup pfSense Configuration Guide
In this guide, I will show you how backup your pfSense Configuration and why it is important to do so.
Especially if you experiment around a lot, it’s an easy way to restore back to a working configuration. I had to use this feature many times and I usually keep my backups of a few different states.
pfSense DNS Server Guide
In this pfSense DNS Server Guide, I want to give you an introduction into the world of DNS. What is DNS and what does it do inside of your pfSense box?
As you know these tutorials are more guided towards beginners, so I won’t go too deep into the material.
