Most likely not before release. If someone wants to work some magic I'll be happy to include it.

echo 1 > /dev/led/led2 <- Turns LED 2 on
echo 0 > /dev/led/led2 <- Turns LED 2 off
echo fx> /dev/led/led2 <- Flashes LED 2 at intervals where x=1-9. 1 is fastest 9 is slowest.LED 1 is the LED on the left. LED 2 is the middle LED. LED 3 is the LED on the right. Unless you have your box upside down, and then it would be reversed :)

Well isn't this special. I had no idea this was so easy… I just verified it works with Soekris too...
echo 1 > /dev/led/error

Heheh… I wish I were more useful in putting this knowledge into something worthwhile.
But, at least I have 3 blinking LEDs on my WRAP right now :)
Well, 1 is solid, 2 is slow blink, and 3 is fast blink.
Makes it look like the box is really at work doing something :)

LMAO
I'll see about integrating this into the alert manager.

Working on a little script that will have my Asterisk box blink the 3rd LED when I have voicemail…
Completely useless, but fun nonetheless.

has there been any progress on putting the leds to any use?

You can utilize commands to turn on/off/blink lights in hidden config.xml commands on bootup or on filter reload:
http://faq.pfsense.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=10&id=38&artlang=en&highlight=hidden ;)like make it blink with earlyshellcommand and switch to sold with shellcommand after it's up…
Just tested this and it works (insert below your <system>tag in your downloaded config.xml and restore it again):
<earlyshellcmd>echo 1 > /dev/led/led2</earlyshellcmd> <shellcmd>echo 1 > /dev/led/led3</shellcmd>This will do the following on a wrap (like a progressmeter):
- light 1 turns on when system is initializing bios
- light 2 turns on early in the boot process
- light 3 tunrs on when the bootup is nearly finished
In case you have only one LED (soekris) you can try this:
<earlyshellcmd>echo f4 > /dev/led/led1</earlyshellcmd> <shellcmd>echo 1 > /dev/led/led1</shellcmd>This will make the first LED blink when early in the bootup process and switch to solid when it's nearly done.</system>
