Thanks a lot for the replies!
Recreating manually seems like the way to go. However I am also considering to start with a VM to see what happens when I straight restore a pfsense backup as my settings are mostly firewall related.

Hello all, future OPNsense user here coming from /r/homelab and the things that went down there.

I would like to move to OPNsense from Pfsense. Although my setup is not very complicated in comparison to many others, I have put in quite a lot of time to get it working 'just right'. As such I am taking a cautious approach.
What should I expect when trying to move from pfSense?

Currently using the following not-too-complicated setup:

• PFsense 2.4.2-RELEASE-p1
• Running on an oldish SuperServer 5015A-EHF-D525
• 3 Wan connections, load balanced with weights (one wan is 50x faster than the other two)
• A few firewall aliases
• Nat rules with aliases
• Outbound rules to force certain devices to use a specific wan, again using aliases

It would be easiest if I could just reinstall and restore a config backup, but from what I have read here it seems to me that this might not work.
Would someone be kind enough to guide this newcomer?

EDIT: Added the use of aliases
