Plug-ins update Flint 2

Hi, quick question, upon selecting plug-ins section it appears there is an update available for iperf3. will the router automatically update this and any others that show up in the future or do I have to action the update button? and then regularly check for updates in the future?

Suppose one could use cron task to automatically update.
I haven't seen a choice for auto update plug-in.
Maybe safer to do of manual task.

Example of a similar task. Might be edited to plugin.

Other web page openwrt I lost had example.

The problem is practical testing.

Generally manually updating the plug-in is safer and more secure.

Manual update means that after the user confirms and clearly understands what version to update from, leaving the user with the right to know.

The plug-in will not be automatically updated, and the firmware upgrading as well, they will need to be manually operated and confirmed by the user.
