===========================================================================================
20.7  "Legendary Lion" Series
===========================================================================================



For five and a half years, OPNsense is driving innovation through modularising
and hardening the open source firewall, with simple and reliable firmware
upgrades, multi-language support, HardenedBSD security, fast adoption of
upstream software updates as well as clear and stable 2-Clause BSD licensing.

20.7, nicknamed "Legendary Lion", is a major operating system jump forward on
a sustainable firewall experience.  This release adds DHCPv6 multi-WAN, custom
error pages for the web proxy, Suricata 5, HardenedBSD 12.1, netstat tree view,
basic firewall API support (via plugin) and extended live log filtering amongst
others.

20.7.8 (January 19, 2021)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


The particular volume of this stable update foreshadows the end of the 20.7
series in less than two weeks.

One longstanding issue with radvd on FreeBSD 12.1 has been resolved according
to multiple user feedback.

The mailing lists have been archived and will no longer be used.

And before there are questions: yes, consumers of the development version are
now able to upgrade to 21.1-RC1.

20.7.2 (September 02, 2020)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


While we are still looking closer at netmap/iflib performance on 12.1 we
are rolling out a kernel with Intel em/igb updates that should avoid bad

20.7.1 (August 13, 2020)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Small update here with security advisories, multicast fixes and logging
reliability patches amongst others.

Overall, the jump to HardenedBSD 12.1 is looking promising from our end.
From the reported issues we still have more logging quirks to investigate
and especially Netmap support (used in IPS and Sensei) is lacking in some
areas that were previously working. Patches are being worked on already
so we shall get there soon enough.  Stay tuned.

Here are the full patch notes:

* system: split log process name into separate column
* system: filter new style log directories accordingly
* system: add delay to improve syslog-ng startup
* system: properly switch login page to latest jQuery 3.5.1
* firewall: add select boxes for static filters in live log
* firmware: ignore mandoc.db files in health output as the system will regenerate them weekly
* firmware: bring back Chinese Aivian mirror
* firmware: remove defunct opn.sense.nz and RageNetwork mirrors
* web proxy: add JSON output following Elastic Common Schema (sponsored by Incenter Technology)
* backend: cap log messages to 4000 characters to prevent longer messages from vanishing
* plugins: os-acme-client 1.35 `[1] <https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/pull/1950>`__ 
* plugins: os-frr 1.15 `[2] <https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/blob/stable/20.7/net/frr/pkg-descr>`__

20.7 (July 30, 2020)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


For five and a half years, OPNsense is driving innovation through modularising
and hardening the open source firewall, with simple and reliable firmware
upgrades, multi-language support, HardenedBSD security, fast adoption of
upstream software updates as well as clear and stable 2-Clause BSD licensing.

20.7, nicknamed "Legendary Lion", is a major operating system jump forward on
a sustainable firewall experience.  This release adds DHCPv6 multi-WAN, custom
error pages for the web proxy, Suricata 5, HardenedBSD 12.1, netstat tree view,
basic firewall API support (via plugin) and extended live log filtering amongst
others.
