Here at $WORK we have a distributed Web Filtering system. We have just started looking to streamline the process. I figured that other large school districts have done this already or attempted it so I will ask here.
We have 18 High Schools and 140 Elementary schools. The Filtering is local but managed Centrally. I am part of the team that handle the management of the firewalls/filtering. I know we need a way top accept the request, review it and then affect the change to the system whether it is a local change or one that has to be global among the group. I know there are configuration management tools to handle the changes but I am looking for people that have done this and see their process. I am investigating using RT as the mechanism to handle the requests for a number of reasons but I am willing to look at other solutions. But as this is a private school district and our Budget year just started I have to look at Free solutions at the start and then if we have to spend $$$ it would be moved to next year. I figured a VM could be spun up to handle this as it should not be that resource intense I can be contacted this off list if preferred. I will summarize things for the group when finished. TIA John Boris A lonely Sysadmin trying to stay afloat.
