      I own a Netgate 3100, would i be able to download a pfSense plus software and install it on a bare machine? or am I limited to community edition despite I own a physical Netgate machine?

      Thank you,

        For your 3100 : https://www.netgate.com/tac-support-request - this will be a pfSense Plus.
        So, no 'despite', your 3100 is a Netgate 3100, you should not use the CE, but the version they will send you upon your TAC request.

        To switch from CE to pfSense Plus : https://www.netgate.com/pfsense-plus-software/software-types

        CE : https://www.pfsense.org/download/

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          At current time there is no means to put Plus on non-Netgate hardware directly.

          You can download 2.6-RELEASE and get a token to upgrade to pfSense Plus (see this blog for more detail) and then upgrade to 22.01-RELEASE and then 22.05-RELEASE.

          Your 3100 image is not compatible with any other hardware, either.
