[SOLVED] Proper procedure for updating?

[user7654]

Hey there OPNsense, just got OPNsense running not too long ago, and while I was looking for package addons it says to just hit update. How do you get to install other packages other than the preinstalled ones?

Hi there,

You install plugins from System: Firmware: Plugins.

Updates are all-in-one so one update keeps the system and its plugins at the latest version unless they are manually locked for one reason or another.

Hey @franco , thanks!. How do you get a package such as tor? Is there an additional repo that needs to be added?

From the plugin list you can see "os-tor" which is the GUI plugin for Tor. Click the install button. That's all.

Browse the plugin list to see what you need. Or take a look here:

Appreciate it! The package manager was erroring out sometime... It worked itself out... All good!
