      This shows no counters for me acts unused also.

      I was told it would be used automatically.

      I have it enabled and a VPN connection running.

      No counters seen in pfsense

      Use the shell command vmstat -i | grep safexcel
      to test it used to show counters when used

        These issues should be in separate threads if we have any hope of tracking them.

            Bump, since it's been nearly a week since an update.

            pfSense roadmap
            The Release 24.03 was targeted for March 2024, actual only one
            "thing" is open.

            P.S. I got my pfSense also updated to 24.03.

                    This RC took a long time to upgrade - even from the most recent beta! I even took my laptop to the rack since I couldn't SSH in! Whew!

                      Really? Mine was really fast. No issues on my 6100.

                        @behemyth It took almost 10 minutes on my 6100 MAX when each incremental beta took less than a few miinutes. Suricata was the only package that had an upgrade and that one appeared to take a while for whatever reason. Interestingly enough I never got a boot verification. I'll have to see if this RC version flipped this back to an opt-in feature.

                        UPDATE: I never got a boot verification this time:

                            I haven’t looked yet and my dog is looking at me wanting to know why we haven’t left for the dog park yet. I’ll check when I get back home!

                              I noticed that this RC version did not clear my package cache. You can run this command to reclaim the disk space:

                              pkg clean -a

                                What should I look for specifically? Thanks!

                                  I saw the same.

                                    Something that shows it verifying the boot automatically when it should have been manual for example.

                                      @stephenw10 Can you do the boot verification from the console? I may have inadvertently pressed enter s bunch of times when I was trying to establish a session via USB cable. Things appeared to have been locked up before the terminal refreshened with new text.

                                          @stephenw10 I'll to the upgrade from the console on the released version and report back! I have a feeling that's what happened because I admittedly got impatient after 10 minutes of not being able to SSH in. Normally the 24.03 upgrades were really quick (like < 2 min).

                                          There's another 6100 MAX users that experienced the same slow upgrade. The main difference is that he is running Snort vs Suricata. He did paste some log failures in his post. Take note of the last line:

                                          Performing automatic boot verification...done.
