Changing the Boot Order

The appliance ships with a factory default boot order which may not be optimal for all users. Changing the boot can reduce the boot time in environments where the default is slower than expected.

Before starting, determine the platform firmware type (AMI or SBL).

The procedure to change the boot order differs based on the firmware type. Additionally, there is a method to change the boot order for AMI firmware from a command prompt in pfSense^® Plus software.

Follow the document which matches the firmware type on the device.

• Changing the Boot Order in SBL
• Changing the Boot Order using efibootmgr (AMI Only)
