Feature Request QuickAssist

[FriendlyObserver]

If I interpret pfSense’s marketing communications correctly, they are implying that emphasis on pfSense CE will be reduced and QuickAssist support will be among the first features reserved to pfSense Plus.

While I very much like both pfSense and OPNsense in terms of the software published, I think that a good strategic response by OPNsense might be to offer QuickAssist support for some relevant platforms (e.g., Xeon D and C3000) to the general public.

The resulting combination of relevant features (faster HA Proxy and VPN cryptography) on one side and less emphasis on the other side might lead to larger portions of the general public / community making informed choices.

Pfsense plus will be closed and currently IMHO there is no source in FreeBSD for this. Might be one of the reasons why they dont put it in pfsense CE

It was added to stable/12 here https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?h=stable/12&id=fbdc6d2844

I'm not against trying to look into merging it for 21.7 or 22.1, but marketing aside it's just a feature we will add when it's ready.

We don't sell qat(4) and we don't sell promises.


Cheers,
Franco
