Router - VyOS

From AAISP Support Site
Revision as of 16:23, 7 January 2020 by Nhumfrey (talk | contribs) (Added hardware section)

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).

Documentation for VyOS is available here: https://vyos.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Hardware

VyOS runs on standard x86 PC hardware (note that version 1.2+ requires 64-bit hardware).
