system updates



Hi,

NetBSD newb here. I know FreeBSD well, a bit about OpenBSD, and lots about Linux. My question is after installing, how do I check for updates to the system itself and get them installed (security updates, kernel updates, etc)... or is this not a thing with NetBSD? I figure packages are updatable via the pkg management tools (pkg_add/pkgsrc) doing my research on this as we speak.

Help appreciated and if there's a common set of procedures folks follow, that'd be good to know, too... in freebsd: freebsd_update fetch install for system updates, pkg update && pkg upgrade for packages and mint: apt update && apt upgrade for the same sorts of updates... that kind of thing.

Thanks,

Will
