    I’m a test automation engineer and the best advice I can give to anyone having a go at this is to start small (minimum base configurations for most common setups) and automate the crap out of the conversion solution using virtual machines that can have snapshots taken and be reverted back to a base image state after each test run. Unsure if I’d go so far as to run simulated traffic tests through after each iteration but at the very least I think I’d use a test lab with a pair of virtual firewalls that can be rapidly reset between ETL conversion test runs.

    I’m sticking with pfSense. I’m brand new to all of this and I need as many step by step guides/videos as I can get, and pfSense just has way more of those lol. When I get “learned”, I may make the change.

    I would definitely contribute to this. Fortunately I missed the boat for the Home+Lab version, so I’m still using CE. But the writing is on the wall and probably time to make a change.

    I have failed to figure out how to get pfFocus
