Request - UI Filter for IPv4/IPv6

Would it be possible in the UI to add a filter in the authorized IPs/Analytics section for IPv4 and IPv6? My ISP gives me a /56 for IPv6. As i am changing network options and the use of ControlD just wanted to know if this was possible. <br> ![](https://files.readme.io/f83ff60-image.png) <br>

Request: Add Root Certificate automatically when install the ctrld service in Windows

I use the powershell script to install the Windows service. It would be nice if this setuip also downloaded and installed the root certificate at the same time. The command to add should be fairly simple. This is the command I use. powershell -Command Invoke-WebRequest -Uri '<https://deploy.controld.com/blockpage/Control-D-root-x1.cer'> -OutFile 'C:\\ControlD\\Control-D-root-x1.cer'; Import-Certificate -FilePath "C:\\ControlD\\Control-D-root-x1.cer" -CertStoreLocation Cert:\\LocalMachine\\Root

better branded block response

1. having better customization for the blocked sites, ie options to toggle or even provide a html file/ template to use and edit. the txt "this website is blocked" is very annoying too, please add a way to remove it/ customize. 2. having a preview button beside/ near the save button to quickly preview what the changes looks like. additionally, for example, the ads "tiles' beside the websites can and will be all sorts of sizes/ dimensions, having a quick preview button can simplify the process by a lot. 3. browsers on my phone although shows the branded block messages on the ads tiles, it also shows that the connection isnt secured, while often times it just wouldnt show to branded blocked response, especially on pc.

Analytics

I would like to suggest that when you improve your analytics, if it's possible to see at what hour/minute, and the profile, and the device that the website was blocked or forwarded or bypassed. Another suggestion is to allow to gather together the websites, for example, several different sites are used for Facebook, I would like to be able to see all of them together, to minimize the amount of information shown. Also would like to suggest adding more icons to the websites in analytics, and suggest to be able to know what this site is about, maybe with a little "?" Next to the site. (Or just Websites that are clear about what they are, or represent). <br>

Branded custom block page

I would like to understand, when a site gets blocked, why it's getting blocked. For example, "this site is blocked because this website contains pishing" to know exactly which rule is blocking to the site. Regarding the need to install root certificate to be able to show the block site, I just want you to know an example that I had access to the block page , before controlD, I was using openDNS, very simple, but somehow, they are able to load the block page on all the devices of the network (it was installed in the router). And I have no idea how they can do that, but I would appreciate if you please take a look on their method of blocking, to be sure why we have to install the certificate, maybe they just use HTTP, I really don't understand very much about this kind of tech. What if we need to install a certificate only in the router and it could work on every device connected?

Video tutorials

Just a suggestion, for users that don't know for sure exactly how to make everything work the way they wants, you should do some tutorial videos and upload in YouTube. Videos made only for the more advanced features, I guess, would be very attractive for the platform! The tutorials now used are very good and works perfectly, but you can improve using a video tutorial. And also wanted to suggest launching videos regarding the "learn more", because sometimes it's very difficult to understand the feature we're thinking about enabling when it's written in the document page only, but maybe in a more tutoring environment, everyone would understand completely. Thank you for your time.
