        I have a smooth update also, This is my first update since getting IPv6 running on my AT&T services with PD and getting PD offset for the VLANs. Was very worried that our friends at AT&T would re-assign the /60 range that I have been using to something new when the router requested PD from the residential gateway. Been on the same IPv4 address for over 10 years now and good to see IPv6 follows the same rules in the RG.

            A no drama in-place update to 23.05.1 on a 2100 this morning. The pfb_filter service took a long time to start (maybe 5 minutes), so once the router was completely up I rebooted again via the console. Same pause but it came back up and all appears to be working just fine.

            Thank you to all the devs and support for a very calm upgrade experience.

              Smooth in-place update via the GUI from 23.05 on third-party hardware. Took < 5 minutes.

              Left the two packages that I use -- apcupsd and Wireguard -- installed during the upgrade.

                    Hi,
                    Thank you for fast response.
                    The previous error was rapresented on my testing instance of pfsense+ 23.05. Now I upgrade my production from 23.01 to 23.05.1 directly and it works. In the test istance of pfsense I definitely have sam sort of configuration mismatch.

                    Sincerely yours,

                      I would also make sure it's pfSense Plus token is current and valid. You can check the status of the token by going to System > Register
