Vyatta has changed the networking world by developing the first commercially supported, open-source router/firewall/VPN solution to provide an alternative to over-priced, inflexible products from proprietary vendors. Vyatta solutions offer industry-standard routing and management protocols, support for most commonly used network interfaces, and configuration via command-line interface (CLI) or graphical user interface (GUI).
