How do I install OPNsense with Dragonfly BSD?
(1/1)
prancer_71:
Would like to know if there's an option for this or a separate installer. Thanks

You want to host it on Dragonfly BSD or you want to port it to Dragonfly BSD?
I don't know if Dragonfly BSD comes with Bhyve or KVM or XEN support. But maybe that is an option for you?
If you want to have DragonflyBSD as the base for an OPNsene installation, here is the source code: https://github.com/opnsense/core
The different BSDs are not exchangeable. They differ in many ways and porting the OPNsense software stack most likely would be a big effort. I can't see a benefit to do so. To be honest if porting would make sense, OpenBSD would be the better target BSD. They have a bigger community and OpenBSD already is used for more commercial network products out there.
FreeBSD and HBSD made a good job for pfSense and OPNsense. The community is active and the availability of packages and ports is big. Why change a running system?
