Solaris17:
Pretty exciting list!!! I always look forward to OPNsense progression and you are doing a fantastic job Franco! What a great project!

franco:
Thanks, especially the plugins have been lucky to have active maintainers now. <3

Granted, most of these changes already hit 17.7.x, this list just keeps track of what has been done.

A 18.1-BETA CFT and road map will also be published within the next week.


Cheers,
Franco

tuaris:
Looking forward to testing. Hopefully the move to FreeBSD 11.1 might help solve my kernel panic issues when using VLANs

Ren:
Up for 7 days no issues other than a few user errors which required a reboot. Currently running one VLAN for guest wireless access (GUESTNET) for UBNT access point. Currently in the process of configuring a couple plugins, specifically the antivirus for HTTP and HTTPS traffic using letsencrypt cert


Oooo the only error i saw in the logs is the error listed below

kernel: module_register_init: MOD_LOAD (vesa, 0xffffffff810a67e0, 0) error 19

Which seems to be a bug with the video driver which i honestly kinda don't care about
