We have three locations joined under IPSec and one with OpenVPN.

The upgrade from 1.2.3 to 2.0 RC3 was very smooth with all packages uninstalled prior to. Backups were made and restored with no issues at all.

Under RC3 IPSec, response times and performance to all three locations continues to impress and amaze. It just confirms that 2.0 is a rather far cry from 1.2.3. in this regard.

My initial impression with 2.0 is spacious and impressive. This impression is coming from using IPCOP, Smoothwall, Vyatta, and then settling down with 1.2.3 and now, 2.0. I feel very comfortable with 2.0 because it's not only meeting current needs, but can meet future needs given a colorful variety of scenario's.

Thanks very much for this. Jits.
