The latter makes it easier to manage distinct +policies for connected VPN users. For more details please refer to +the documentation listed below. + +The other honorable mention is the netmap work we have been doing +with Zenarmor and Klara on the FreeBSD kernel side which brings +bridge device support as well as a considerable improvement to the +emulated mode where several packet stalls and mbuf leaks have been +identified and subsequently fixed. This should have an operational +impact on Suricata (IPS mode) and Zenarmor. The state is much better +now but please do not hesitate to contact us about issues that you +might still be having with netmap-based packet flows as the topic is +a rather complex one. + +Orange FR users be aware that your ISP now requires strict VLAN PCP +on all DHCPv4 requests so please now set 'Use VLAN priority' interface +setting for both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6.
