Hello Folks,

First of all great work & respect for 22.1  !!

Performs pretty well here, just found one little gui drop down glitch issue in Ipsec phase 1 tunnel subnet menu with Firefox...except this all runs super smooth !

In terms of design decisions I am just curious why is there no clear position or info regarding the offloading settings, It looks like CRC makes super sense ;) to enable per default if you're not using realtek nics or IPS or vm environments and TSO & LRO seem to be always disabled on firewalls, right ?

If this not wrong,  why u're not drop TSO & LRO options from the gui and make them disabled per default as turnable and make CRC enabled by default in the gui (incl. the info for realt. & vms cases) ?

Further I would like to know if you're consider removing the web proxy, dyn masq dns and opendns from core to plugins and put wireguard into core?

Best & Thx !

No thanks. Personally I don't mind going from one default to the other and projects always have to debate which of two options are better as the default and a debate is useful or a revisit of previous decisions, nothing wrong with that but to use development time to change from UI drop-down to tunable, IMHO isn't a good use.
