Unbound 1.13.x in pfSense Plus 21.05.x
-
pfSense Plus 21.05 is still running Unbound 1.12.0 for its DNS Resolver. As seen in the pfSense 2.5 forums, and on Reddit, Unbound 1.13.1 fixes the issue where DHCP registration restarts the Unbound service. My appliance, an SG-2100, restarts the Unbound service anywhere from every few minutes to several times per minute. The only "fix" is to uncheck the DHCP Registration box, which is not ideal.
Is there a roadmap or bug issue on this that can be tracked?

@timm_zahn if you look here
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11316
They had moved to 1.13 but then there was issues, so they reverted to 1.12
If you want 1.13 you can move to dev 22.01, or wait til it releases.. Which should be this month.. per its version number ;) And per the newsletter email that went out that mentioned 22.01
pfSense Plus 22.01 Coming Soon
This past September we had to skip the pfSense Plus 21.09 release. We truly appreciate the community's patience and we are excited to be able to announce the arrival of pfSense Plus version 22.01 in January. The release is receiving its finishing touches before we make it available in the next few weeks. This isn't a run-of-the-mill release either, this 22.01 version of pfSense Plus software will deliver on major community requests, most notably the ability to run pfSense Plus software on third-party boxes.

@johnpoz Fantastic. Thank you for the quick answer.

Yes you can test it in 22.01 or 2.6 if you're able to do that:

uncheck the DHCP Registration box
Alternately, making the lease time longer should expand/delay the restarts. DHCP renewals occur at half the lease time.
