netgate nexus
-
This just got installed on its own.
Googling doesn't get anything relevant to netgate (but lots about cisco).
Is this a cross over episode ? :)
-
Check out System > Advanced > Multi-Instance Management. It's now a package so it can be updated like other packages.
-
@marcosm Ok.. thanks. I'm aware of the existance of mim (as NOT as man in the middle)
as a new pfsense feature.I understand it now has a name too.
Good to know :)
-
Does this also mean that it's save to uninstall/remove it, if you don't need or use it?
-
@marcosm Interesting. So MIM is a package now. Interesting. Curious, why not make it part of base install?
-
It's installed by default in Plus like the firmware updater for example.
Having it as a package means it can be user updated between main releases. There is a lot of development happening there so it's likely we will update it.
-
@stephenw10 Ok so i run all my hardware on Plus so its baked in but if i had CE, then that's an optional package? Just to be clear.
-
No, it's not available in CE.
-
@stephenw10 ah ok understood. So its part of the base install albiet a separate package update.
Does that mean an admin can remove the package and therefore not have MIM anymore? -
You could in the current version but it will probably become irremovable at some point. However it will be reinstalled at upgrade if you do.
-
@michmoor it is part of the base install, this lets us update it outside of a release
