Is pfsense 2.4 safe to use in small business environment with about 70 devices?

Just freeradius2 package.

Derelict

It's beta. You make the call.

tripplex

Ok. So to conclude don't use it then?

maverick_slo

I would say go for it…
There are no major showstoppers but yeah its beta...

tripplex

thanks for the reply

There are no known security issues, I'd guess. Otherwise the team wouldn't consider it being available for public testing.
On the other hand there might be some glitches that need to be found before an official release.
If you find one then report it on redmine.pfsense.org!

Derelict

If all known problems were fixed it would be released, not beta. Nobody can recommend you use it in your production environment because nobody but you knows anything about your production environment.

It is up to you to test it and personally deem it suitable.

The list of known, open issues is here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/issues?query_id=71

@JKnott:

Any target date for release?

Monday? You don't release right before the weekend.
Now the team has time to build the release version and distribute it to the mirrors, write release notes, blogs, preparing for a release next week.
Was looking at 2.3.3 release not 2.4

JKnott

OK, I won't bother with the beta version then. I can wait a few days.

jahonix

Hold it, that's just my guess after watching this https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/issues?query_id=75 and the calender.

Are you by chance referring to 2.3.3? 2.4 has been at 68% for awhile now.

jahonix

Shit, you're right. Was reading the post above which said …using 2.3.3 beta...
2.4 is still a way to go.
