Router - VyOS

VyOS is an Open Source router operating system built on top of Debian Linux. Rather than having to configure lots of different software packages, everything is control through a single configuration file and it uses a command-line based configuration interface, similar to Juniper's JunOS. It is based on Vyatta (as is Ubiquiti's EdgeOS).
