      If I have set my pfSense box to using the DNS Forwarder, how do I make sure that the cache is cleared after making configuration changes?

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
