System

The System tab manages the router's operating system.

System updates

  • The panel lists the packages apt-get upgrade would upgrade, each with its installed and its new version, as of apt's last update of its package lists.
  • Check update updates apt's package lists and lists the packages again.
  • Upgrade appears when a package can be upgraded; after a confirmation it runs apt-get upgrade -y on the router and shows its output. It upgrades the installed packages only: none is installed or removed, and a package that needs a new one is kept back.
  • Services restart during the upgrade; when vpn-router is upgraded, the page may not answer for a while, and Reload page loads its new version.
  • A reboot is offered when a package asks for one, as after a new kernel.
  • Only one upgrade runs at a time: this one or the upgrade of vpn-router on the Overview tab.
