OPNsense 25.1-BETA | feedback

[franco]

Also on one FW which has policy routing (almost) nothing works anymore on the main VLAN, all the policy routed traffic is ignored and is sent out an arbitrary openvpn GW.

Talking about this it seems that this was caused by downgrading a 25.1 kernel to 24.7 while base was still on 25.1.  Backwards compat is given, but not forwards compat.


Cheers,

Been running 25.1 since December. No issues encountered. Thanks for all the work on OPNsense!

Can I update a box from 24.7.11 to 25.1.b (devel) and then in the future update to 25.1-RC1 and follow not-devel releases?

I have a Nanopi R5S running 25.1.b as testing, all fine. But my router for my home runs 24.7.11.

Thanks,

Yes, RC1 will add stable ("community") release type again which leads into 25.1.x -- for online upgrades when RC1 hits it's still necessary to go through opnsense-devel since we will not publish an upgrade path to stable branch before 25.1 is ready.

Ah, January is here, time for opnsense update :-)

No issues so far with the update to 25.1r1; not even the strange german PPPoE stuff produced issues.
Good job team; seemless as it should be ;-)

Hey Alex, yay :)

Hi,

I failed to find any answer to this. What are the steps for switching from Development to Community in terms of installed plugins? All have this -devel suffix but after upgrade to community they stay as they were. Do I need to manually reinstall their non-devel versions?
