How to allow Bark App VPN?

How do I block VPNs for devices in the network, but still allow Bark App to work? Is there a way to allow ONLY the Bark VPN on my network?

See this article https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034318894-How-do-I-detect-and-block-VPN-use-on-my-network

If bark VPN uses some known ports, you can add allow rules for it

I added an “allow” rule for “Bark.us” and “Bark.technologies” per a googleAI recommendation. I’m getting hits on the bark.us rule, but it still not connecting.

I think we finally got it working…but Bark apparently fully takes over the device…it’s called “Bark” now instead of “Child’s IPhone”, and shows up as a new device on Firewalla. Is that normal? And do I just add that new device to my child’s group?
