      Hello guys, so I am making sure my math is correct, the default settings in pfsense before the system will failover to the other gateway is about 1 min or 60 seconds correct? This is with a default 60000ms for the time period. All default settings.

        @beloc Can't confirm any settings without seeing them. But 60,000 milliseconds = 60 seconds = 1 minute, yes.

          @beloc I think you mean https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/routing/gateway-configure.html#:~:text=The%20amount%20of%20time%2C%20in%20milliseconds which is the averaging time period not necessarily a maximum. (?)

          To upgrade, select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings. When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, CPU, and/or disk speed.
          Only install packages for your version of pfSense.
