The latest major release is out of OPNsense, a BSD open-source firewall OS project derived from pfSense and m0n0wall.

OPNsense 16.7 brings NetFlow-based reporting and export, trafic shaping support, two-factor authentication, HTTPS and ICAP support in the proxy server, and UEFI boot and installation modes.

OPNsense 16.7 is powered underneath by FreeBSD 10.3 but with full integration of the ASLR code from HardenedBSD.
