pfSense Plus 25.07 Beta Now Available
-
Updated "dirty" from 25.03 beta with no obvious issues
Is there an interim fix list between previous beta and this?
-
@pfGeorge I'd like to test from 24.03
Is there a way to do so?
-
Does this have the latest Squid version ? And or fix the squid package status page issue??
-
The release notes indicate:
This release includes support for DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation in the Kea DHCP daemon.For clarification, does this work with IPv6 Track Interfaces?
I.E. Can Kea provide an IPv6 delegation to a client on the on LAN interface if the LAN IPv6 interface is set up as a Track Interface following the WAN interface (which has received a /56 from the ISP via DHCP)?
-
Does this mean there isn't going to be a 25.03?
-
@ebcdic Definitely no 25.03 will exist. We expect 25.07 rc and release. soon.
-
Upgraded from 25.03 Beta to 25.07 Beta without issues on my SG4200.
-
Upgraded my 4200 MAX without difficulty. However, I just noticed something strange with the the Status-->Monitoring display. The number of processes listed is huge in comparison to what top shows (64 processes)
-
@WN1X Here is the image:
-
You, image shows two things : "300" processes, which is a lot. 3x times to much.
But then : if you've installed and activated every possible pfSense package, it might be normal.The avarage pocessor usage is actually close to "zero" so if there are really 200 processes to much, they don't 'cost' you anything : tjhe are probably all sleeping.
Anyway, it time to leave the "all goes well" interface, the GUI, and use the real one.
Use the console, or ven better, activate SSH and ssh into your pfsense, use menu option 8 and type in the magic command :topand you'll see in an interactive way what processes are doing what.
You could get the big list with all processes with
ps auxUse
ps aux | wc -lto count.
edit : Humm : Diagnostics > System Activity ;)
Be ware : this GUI 'top' version lists probably all the threads. Not just the processes - a process can have multiple threads.
and now I understand you question
I saw the
Status > Monitoring and selected "System > Processor".and surprise :
so your 4200 and my 4100 are running nominal, and just fine
The monitoring tools show, imho, threads, not processes.
-
@Gertjan Either the labels need to be changed to say "threads" or the data source should be changed to show actual process counts.
Either way, it's just a minor bug.
-
@WN1X Digging into the /var/db/rrd/updaterrd.sh script which collects the data, I see it is using:
PROCS=`ps uxaH | wc -l | awk '{print $1;}'`to collect the process count. I believe the fix is to change this to:
PROCS=`ps uxa | wc -l | awk '{print $1;}'` -
On the other hand, your question / our discussions shows (me) somewhat that there is no 'good' number to be shown, but more a constant number (if all goes well).
Like this : my own pfSense 'process' stats over one year. As you can see, the number, whatever it might be, is stable, and that's what counts. -
Updated from 24.11 without issues !
