Teaching IP routing with VyOS

VyOS is very useful for teaching IP routing basics at the University of Applied Sciences Esslingen. The command line interface is easy to learn and convenient to use. And VyOS includes all IP routing features required in the lab (KTlab at University of Applied Sciences Esslingen).

VyOS: Open Source router done right!

VyOS has been my go to virtual router distribution ever since vyatta got acquired. I love their new business model which makes sure the project stays afloat while still giving the community all the features being developed without restrictions.

I've used VyOS (Vyatta) since 2014

I've used VyOS (Vyatta) since 2014. It was the primary routing platform in an organization that supported 100+ sites and over 40,000 users. There is a learning curve for some who have come from a traditional environment, but it is an extremely flexible networking platform.

VyOS is a very good software router

We are working with VyOS (previously Vyatta) since 2014 and in general we are very satified.

VyOS is a great product. It's very community driven. The only small downside at the moment is that some legacy staff needs to be reworked until the focus really could be set to the future.
But a lot of things are already changed.

It just works, as simple as that

Vyos is my go-to distro when setting up routers. Everything works out of the box, the installation process is simple and in a few minutes you're good to go.

The development is really active, and you can easily reach the devs and the community through the forums if you need.

What an awesome Swiss-Army-Knife!

What an awesome Swiss-Army-Knife of a solution!
I've been using Vyos since the early days. It is an incredibly flexible, useful and stable router.

Very impressed with the recent re-shuffle, re-branding and formalizing of the commercial support model.

It will no-doubt bring Vyos on-par with other high-quality commercially-supported open source tools. In my view, better than your average Cisco/Juniper/Edgemax router.

Get VyOS in your toolbox

Over the last two years of so, VyOS has become my go-to for a wide range of use cases, ranging from a simple home router all the way up to using it for private to public cloud connectivity on AWS, Azure and GCP. It's also a great VPN appliance for road-warriors.

It doesn't matter what I throw it on, KVM, Xen or VMware hypervisors, or bare metal Xeon, Xeon-D and below... it just works.

VyOS kicks ... you know what. I hope you'll decide to support the project too.

VyOS is my go-to router distribution

VyOS is my go-to router distribution. I use it at client sites, at home, and would not hesitate to recommend it for most router/firewall needs. It runs superbly well on small low powered hardware as well as larger servers. I have never used or needed the paid support, but for a mission critical installation I would think it would be beneficial.
