Is it possible to manipulate dnsfilter via SSH?

[jnsie]

I'm able to manipulate dnsfilters via the user interface, but would like to change the filter mode for particular clients via SSH. Can anyone provide any pointers?

It’s a bad idea in practice because the format of the nvram variable is not straightforward to manipulate.

nvram get dnsfilter_rulelist

If you already have client rules defined and the results don’t scare you, they should.

Or wait for someone smarter to wander by.

Thanks, mate. You're the someone smarter here
