Vyatta
software是一份完整的、即刻可用的、基于Debian的发行,它被设计为能将一套标准的x86硬件转换为企业级的路由器/防火墙。Vyatta软
件包括对常用网络接口、工业标准路由协议和管理协议的支持。与先前的开源软件路由项目不同,所有的这些特性都可以通过单个的命令行接口(CLI)或是基于
web的图形用户界面来配置。Vyatta软件可以以自由社区版本获得,它也以捆绑软件订购的形式提供,这包含了维护、升级和技术支持。 Dave Roberts has announced the release of Vyatta 3.0 Community edition, a specialist, Debian-based distribution for routers and firewalls: "Vyatta today announced the latest release of its open-source networking software. The Vyatta software combines router, firewall, and VPN capabilities into an integrated solution that delivers twice the performance of proprietary network solutions at half the price. As the third major release, Vyatta Community Edition 3 adds a number of changes and enhancements, including: IPSec VPN - Vyatta now supports dedicated site-to-site (branch-to-branch or branch-to-HQ) virtual private networking and supports the most widely used cryptographic algorithms. Multi-link PPP (MLPPP) - MLPPP allows customers to increase WAN bandwidth by using multiple low-speed circuits. BGP scaling and security enhancements - improved BGP scaling provides faster routing convergence with many peers." Read the full press release for more details.
