KP 01:08 AM pfSense Plus Bug #16859: 26.03 Crash report
Hello,
Is there any rhyme or reason to your crashes or do they happen every boot? Looking at this crash report, the crash initially seems to point towards hardware fault, but I'm seeing vtnet interfaces. Is this a VM or bare metal?

KP 12:21 AM pfSense Todo #16928 (Confirmed): Update radvd 2026/05/25: Release v2.21
Version in 26.10 is 2.20. It appears that upstream is still on 2.20 as well, for now, so until FreeBSD gets a build with 2.21, we won't be able to pull it in.
Marking Confirmed for now.
