#Mac#Release
Version 6.0.0-7180
### Quick Release Highlights
Please refer to the knowledge base for the complete update notes: https://kb.nssurge.com/surge-knowledge-base/release-notes/surge-mac-6-release-note
### UI Refresh
- Brand new design style
- New dashboard with richer metrics
- Almost all pages have been refined.
- The complete macOS 26 style adjustments will be made in subsequent versions.
### Surge Gateway VM
- Gateway VM (Layer 2 via VMNET) replaces the old DHCP mode, cutting overhead and enabling richer gateway features.
- IPv6 RA Override issues higher-priority RA messages to selected devices, fixing Fake DNS conflicts and fully taking over IPv6 without affecting others.
### New VIF Engine
- Comprehensive optimization for Network Extension, significantly improving performance and enhancing stability in special cases, restoring v2/v3 performance lost on macOS Sequoia.
### Ponte 2.0
- Supports multiple NAT-traversal channels (IPv6 direct, several proxy relay lines) in parallel; clients auto-select the fastest.
- Ships with a self-hosted, low-latency STUN service.
### Smart Group
- UDP flows now receive the same intelligent path selection as TCP.
- Resolves prior conflicts with Snell connection reuse.
### Snell v5
- Dynamic Record Sizing trims latency on lossy links.
- QUIC Proxy Mode (UDP-over-UDP) activates for QUIC traffic, encrypts only the handshake to shield SNI while avoiding TCP-over-UDP overhead.
### Traffic Statistics
- Per-hostname views and month-long timelines.
- Aggregates helper processes under their parent app.
### Fake DNS v6
- DNS server now answers AAAA on fd00:6152::2, allowing pure-IPv6 deployments.
### Linked Profiles
- #include can point directly to managed-profile URLs; Surge now prompts to create a linked layer when edits are attempted.
### Other Improvements
- Single-IP support in IP-CIDR and IP-CIDR6 rules (/32 or /128 implied).
- PROTOCOL,TCP applies to HTTP/HTTPS for semantic parity.
- Faster loading for huge profiles.
- full-header-mode exposes complete header arrays.
- Default fallback for proxies lacking UDP support: REJECT.
- Adds zstd compression and faster wildcard matching.
- Entire Advanced Settings page rewritten—every parameter editable in-app.
