What is in it
- The official OPNsense 26.7 release, updated to 26.7.8_2 from the official mirror.
- gate42's defaults: the web GUI on port 8443, reachable on the WAN; Unbound forwarding to your network's DNS; ZFS with 1 GB of swap; the QEMU guest agent; serial and video consoles.
- gate42's branding, with the OPNsense attribution and licences on the About page.
- The first-boot tool: a random root password on the console, until you change it.
- Sealed: no logs, keys, certificates, passwords or history from the build.
Tested before publishing: BIOS with a virtio-blk disk and UEFI with virtio-scsi on KVM, and a real OpenStack VM with a client behind it.
Known issues
- On OpenStack, gate42 keeps an MTU of 1500 where the cloud network has a smaller one (often 1442 or 1450). Set the cloud network's MTU on the WAN and LAN interfaces (Interfaces › WAN and LAN › MTU).
- No installer ISO yet: it comes in a following release.
