VyOS FAQ
Can VyOS replace Cisco or Juniper?
Yes. VyOS offers most of the features of high-end proprietary routers, with the added benefits of open source and flexibility. We have carried out many migrations from Cisco, Juniper and Fortinet equipment to VyOS.
Is VyOS suitable for critical production environments?
Yes. With a proper high availability setup and adequate monitoring, VyOS handles the most demanding production environments. Many companies run it in their critical infrastructure.
How does VyOS work with public clouds?
VyOS can be deployed on most public clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP) and European clouds (OVH, Scaleway, Hetzner). It is a strong choice for secure connections between your cloud and on-premises environments, or between different clouds.
What is the learning curve for VyOS?
The VyOS command-line interface is intuitive and well documented. If your team already knows other CLI-based systems like Cisco IOS or Juniper Junos, the transition is fairly easy. We also offer tailored training.
Is VyOS updated regularly?
Yes. VyOS has an active community and a company backing its development. Regular releases bring new features and security fixes.
