This is a Beta release, please see this article for details: Beta Onboarding.
1.972 is currently supported on the Firewalla Gold
This release will require you to use app version 1.44 or higher. Learn more about app 1.44 and see the 1.44 release notes for these features:
- Application blocking
- Policy-based routing
- Traffic prioritization
- Device/ Group main screen shortcut
App 1.45 + 1.972 will be supporting more features. Please see this for details https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500003521641
1. Wireguard VPN Server
Requires app 1.45
2. Strict Ad Blocker Mode
Requires app 1.45
3. Snooze
Pause a rule and auto-resume after a certain amount of time.
4. Flexible Source NAT (Gold Only)
Able to add a new source network for NAT: If Source NAT is turned on, you can manually specify which networks (in addition to all the local networks) can access the internet through the SNAT gateway.
- This feature is useful if you have networks under the Firewalla Gold.
- Firewalla 1.972 will only monitor devices directly attached to the firewalla network.
Bug Fixes:
- Ability to account for long-lived connections
- ... devs are lazy ... so they didn't give me the complete list
Upcoming:
- Blocking Log and stats (Supported in App 1.45)
- System Event Log (Supported in App 1.45)
-
Support Virtual Devices (VPN)

I'm still fairly new to the community. How long from early access to BETA?
depends on the complexity, it can be from one week to one month. (longer if there are significant changes)
Any word 1.972 release date
Unsure at the moment. There will be another code drop to 1.972 soon (from the time of this message) and after that, we will be in the count down. (1 to 2 weeks).
Nice 😃
That Snooze feature will be cool.
How do you enable #1 - Wireguard VPN server and #2 - Strict Ad Blocker Mode I don't see any screen shots or documentation referenced
Just updated the app requirements. Some of the features here require an app update. app updates usually come after the release.
Thanks. When is 1.45 scheduled for early access testflight release? Looking forward to a few other features including DNAT:Port that has been referenced for this release.
