      Hi, I am considering updating to 2.0 in a few days.
      If I understand right gwled is blinked for the new version , is it so?
      If not , can I still use blinkled on 2.0 ?

      Current network "hardware" :
      Running 2.2RC in Virtualbox 4.2.16.

      Retired:
      ALIX2C2 , 4 gigabyte disk cf card running 2.0 (official release).

        The two packages perform different functions. Blinkled lets you set an LED to blink on activity. Gwled lets you set an LED to display gateway status (solid for ok, flashing for down). I use both at the same time on an alix 2d13 board running pfsense 2.0 release. The gwled service always reports at stopped but does actually still work.

          Ok thanks, for some reason I thought gwled was an update made for compatibility on the 2.0.
          In my case I only need the blinkled :)
