VyOS is a fully open-source Linux-based OS for network devices. It focuses on enterprise, service provider, and network geek audiences and includes:
- Multiple dynamic routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, PIM-SM...);
- Multiple VPNs (L2TP, WireGuard, IPsec, DMVPN...);
- Stateful configuration systems with commit/rollback and versioning functionality;
- A remote HTTP API and scripting APIs for shell and Python.
Our business model is "pay for prebuilt binaries", plus technical support and custom development services. We are happy to issue free LTS image access subscriptions to contributors. If you want to use VyOS in your company, it is required to buy a subscription to get support and help us ensure sustainable funding for the project.
