      I have a Netgate SG-5100 running pfSense+ 21.05.2-RELEASE (amd64)
      built on Fri Oct 22 15:24:02 UTC 2021
      FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE

      It is offering an update:
      Version 23.01 is available.

      Is it advisable to hop 2 major versions in one go?
      If not, where do I get the appropriate 22.x code?

      Thanks for any pointers!

        You can go straight to 23.01 but I would backup the config and reinstall clean from a version that old. It will ultimately be quicker and cleaner.
