This comes with some fixes to the new openVPN system, and route-gateway was added (a big oversight imo). More updates to wireguard and improvements have been added, and are still ongoing.

Here are the full patch notes:

system: correctly set RFC 5424 on remote TLS system logging

system: remove hasGateways() and write DHCP router option unconditionally

system: avoid plugin system for gateways monitor status fetch

system: remove passing unused ifconfig data to Gateways class on static pages

system: remove passing unused ifconfig data on gateway monitor status fetch

system: remove the unused "alert interval" option from the gateway configuration

interfaces: calculate_ipv6_delegation_length() should take advanced and custom dhcp6c into account

interfaces: teach ifctl to dump all files and its data for an interface

interfaces: remove dead link/hint in GIF table

interfaces: avoid duplicating $vfaces array

interfaces: introduce interfaces_restart_by_device()

firewall: remove old __empty__ options trick from shaper model

firewall: update models for clarity

firmware: update model for clarity

ipsec: omit conditional authentication properties when not applicable on connections

ipsec: fix key pair generator for secp256k1 EC and add properer naming to GUI (contributed by Manuel Faux)

ipsec: allow the use of eap_id = %any in instances

openvpn: fix certificate list for client export when optional CA specified (contributed by Manuel Faux)

openvpn: add CARP VHID tracking for client instances

This is an open ended question, it seems we need to encourage people to join here as well as being on their preferred platform (which is not ours to discourage or be derogatory about).

I still frequent the "that site" because I want to help - but honestly I dont want to help "that site". Not that I am really doing so.

However, it feels weird if I do have to say "we are also on fede.. blah blah" and lets be honest about this -- its less support, but by more knowledgeable people (??probably I believe so).

How do we get them (and lets face it, Franco) over here to support OSS.

I know Franco has paid subscriptions but opnsense is OSS, the community is more than happy to help out if it is not paywalled.

I reckon I could do it with my hands tied behind my back.

A receding hare line.

Four days ago it was looking on track: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=35041.0

As per the roadmap, https://opnsense.org/about/road-map/ it will come soon.

The main points to note about this release (See https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=34948.0 for everything):

o php8.2 updates

o allow “.” in DNS search override

o extend/modify IPv6 primary address behaviour

o rewrote OpenVPN configuration as “Instances” using MVC/API available as a separate configuration

o move unbound-blocklists.conf to configuration location

Updates to these plugins:

o plugins: os-acme-client 3.18[3]

o plugins: os-dnscrypt-proxy 1.14[4]

o plugins: os-dyndns removed due to unmaintained code base

o plugins: os-frr 1.34[5]

o plugins: os-telegraf 1.12.8[6]

However, there are a lot of known issues and migration considerations:

o The Unbound ACL now defaults to accept all traffic and no longer generates automatic entries. This was done to avoid connectivity issues on dynamic address setups – especially with VPN interfaces. If this is undesirable you can set it to default to block instead and add your manual entries to pass.

o Dpinger no longer triggers alarms on its own as its mechanism is too simplistic for loss and delay detection as provided by apinger a long time ago. Delay and loss triggers have been fixed and logging was improved. The rc.syshook facility “monitor” still exists but is only provided for compatibility reasons with existing user scripts.

o IPsec “tunnel settings” GUI is now deprecated and manual migration to the “connections” GUI is recommended. An appropriate EoL annoucement will be made next year.

o The new OpenVPN instances pages and API create an independent set of instances more closely following the upstream documentation of OpenVPN. Legacy client/server settings cannot be managed from the API and are not migrated, but will continue to work independently.

o The old DynDNS plugin was removed in favor of the newer MVC/API plugin for ddclient. We are aware of the EoL state of ddclient which was unfortunately announced only one year after we started working on the new plugin. We will try to add upstream fixes that have not been released yet and already offer our own ddclient-less Python backend in the same plugin as an alternative.

The driver was fined for undertaking.
