<![CDATA[pfSense 2.8.0 ISO]]>Hi all,

has anybody managed to download a pfSense 2.8.0 CE ISO? When I try to do so, I end up with a pfsense+ ISO. It would be handy to have a proper ISO for repairs or new installs.

Kind regards,

Jens

There is no ISO.

If it recognises that the device got a valid Plus license, it will offer to install Plus otherwise CE will be installed.

If for some reason you want to install CE although the device is eligible for Plus, you can enable CE in the 'Advanced Options', see Installer Walkthrough > Advanced Options.
