Firewall Device To Restrict All Domain Destinations Except Those Listed

I am looking for a Firewall Appliance or Device that has the following configuration option:

Restrict Outgoing Access to ALL domain destinations except for those on the following list:

domainok1.com
domainok2.com
domainok3.com

I want to be able to block 99.99999% of the internet, allowing office users to only go to a few selected sites.

What's a hardware device I can buy (with an eye towards cost)  that will allow me to do that?

Thanks.

Most firewalls allow this. I user Sonicwalls a lot. They are pretty easy to configure and quite cheap.

Choose one with the standard operating system. What you want to do is quite simple.

Thanks, carolchi.

I currently have a netgear Prosafe VPN Firewall FVS318v3 and it appears it does not have that capability.

I am looking at a SonicWALL TZ 100 Series which does appear to have the configuration setting I want with something they call Address Objects.

Does that sound right?

It is easier I think to use the Content Filter (you don't need to buy the service if you kow which sites you want).
But you can also use address objects which are more flexible.
