A few of NxFilter’s core features
Faster and lighter
NxFilter only needs to filter DNS queries on your network which means virtually no latency and makes it extremely lightweight compared to using a webproxy server.
Local DNS cache
NxFilter caches DNS responses from its upstream DNS server. Users will receive responses locally from NxFilter cache greatly reducing DNS traffic on your network.
Mobile user filtering
NxFilter provides several types of filtering agents for remote devices running on Windows and Android. You can also filter iOS devices using DNS over HTTPS.
High scalability
NxFilter is used by ISPs, DNS filter providers, schools, hospitals, and other businesses and has many years of real-world performance experience.
User authentication
You can protect your network with user authentication by NxFilter. NxFilter supports various kinds of user authentication methods including Active Directory integration.
URL keyword filtering
You may want to filter something you can’t filter with a DNS filter. You want to block some search keywords in Google and other search engines. It is possible with NxFilter.
Very stable
NxFilter is very stable and does not require frequent restarts. Many users run NxFilter for months without restarting and typically only restart when applying updates.
Multiple policies
NxFilter provides multiple filtering policies for users and groups. Policies are easily created in the NxFilter GUI and can be applied to individual users and/or groups.
