upgrade to 24.7.4 worked perfectly

thanks team, the upgrade to 24.7.4 went smoothly no issues on barebones hardware.
Having a snapshot to fall back to made it less stressful.

Great work.

Hey, thanks, nice to hear :)

I appreciate the new updates for 24.7.4. Looks and functions great. The new dashboard is beginning to grow on me. Thanks to all who made this project what it is today.

Whole new GUI or just new dashboard? Did you use something else before? Just curious :)


Cheers,

Not sure if just my geolocation (China) matters, the mirror https://dns-root.de/ seems down. Anyone can verify this ?

Thanks in advance

Same here, Upgrade went smooth and the new Snapshot function via GUI is superb (dont need to log via CLI anymore).

BTW the Microcode for intel N100 got updated as well!
Before was 0x17 the latest
Newest is 0x1a

Correction, the new dashboard. I have used several other firewalls from many years ago such as smoothwall, astaro, sophos, and pfsense primarily. OPNsense outperforms the others, includes all the important features and only minor issues, and looks great.

Thanks for the clarification  8)

Same here. Upgrade went smooth with no errors or gremlins. I LOVE LOVE the snapshot feature and the peace of mind it provides during the upgrade process.
I really only have like 2 or 3 plugins installed besides the default opnsense firmware which makes it a lot less likely to act up during upgrades I think.

Smooth as silk. New Dashboard looks easy to customize.
As I have heard, this release was not easy and smooth as silk ;).

And that's exactly why: Many thanks to all developers and contributors!
