Netgate 2100 - direct upgrade from 23.05 to 24.11?
-
It was not obvious from the docs whether one should/could do a 23.05->24.11 direct upgrade.
Is it possible & should I just follow the doc directions for 24.03?
The only mod I've done to my 2023 NG2100 is added a 256GB M.2.
Any lessons learned are always appreciated! Thx.

@pazmanian the steps to which you linked are all automatic. However you aren’t on 24.03 yet. So your next upgrade will have a faster reboot.
You should be fine skipping a version or two. If it’s a bunch of versions/years Netgate will typically tell you to install new. If pfSense needs an intermediate version it will make you go there first.

The dashboard :
and when you click on the item marked green, you are not told that you "have to" upgrade.
However, you are :All pfSense Plus customers are encouraged to upgrade to this new version.

You won't be offered 24.11 from 23.05. I expect 24.03 would be the newest version you can upgrade to directly.

@stephenw10 Much appreciated for all of the quick replies here!

@Gertjan I had no idea about the RSS feed for the dashboard... it was not there by default. Good to know! Thx.
