How To Update Pfsense Firewall 2.5.2 to 2.6.0 | Pfsense Firewall Upgrade Guide| All Major Bugs Fixed.
This is a regularly scheduled release of pfSense CE software including new features, additional hardware support, and bug fixes.
There is a patch available to improve NAT behavior for UPnP and multiple game consoles or clients playing the same game but the fix was discovered too late for it to be included in 2.6.0.
This release contains several significant changes to IPsec for stability and performance. Read the IPsec section of this document carefully.
*Warning:-
IPsec VTI interface names have changed in this release. Configurations will be updated automatically where possible to use the new names.
Check the interface names of assigned VTI instances under Interfaces -Assignments to ensure they are correct after the upgrade completes.
If any third party software configurations or other manual changes referenced the old IPsec VTI interface names directly (e.g. ipsecNNNN) they must be updated to the new format.

ZFS is now the default filesystem for new installations of pfSense Plus and pfSense CE software on all platforms which support booting from ZFS.
It is not possible to change from UFS to ZFS in place, a reinstallation of pfSense Plus or CE is required to migrate from UFS use ZFS.
The ZFS pool name and datasets have also been updated and optimized. Users who were already using ZFS may want to reinstall as well to ensure they have the most optimal disk layout.
pfSense Plus software has a new ZFS dashboard widget to track the status of disks using ZFS.
Log Compression for rotation of System Logs is now disabled by default for new ZFS installations as ZFS performs its own compression.
*Tip:-
The best practice is to disable Log Compression for rotation of System Logs manually for not only existing ZFS installations, but also for any system with slower CPUs. This setting can be changed under Status – System Logs on the Settings tab
The default password hash format in the User Manager has been changed from bcrypt to SHA-512. New users created in the User Manager will have their password stored as a SHA-512 hash. Existing user passwords will be changed to SHA-512 next time their password is changed.

*Note:-
User Manager passwords are only stored as a hash, thus existing users cannot be automatically changed to the new format. To convert a user password from an older hash format, change the password for the user in the User Manager.
The firewall now bootstraps its clock at boot in multiple ways, one of which utilizes multiple NTP servers with static IP addresses from Google Public NTP. This avoids a chicken-and-egg problem where the firewall cannot resolve NTP servers because DNSSEC, which is enabled by default, cannot function when the clock is inaccurate. The firewall performs this sync once per boot before it starts the NTP daemon.
Several areas of the documentation have been rewritten and updated for these releases. Notably, the IPsec and OpenVPN sections have been updated significantly including all of the related configuration recipes.
