based on Debian 12, bringing the redesigned firewall, IKEv2 road warrior VPN, new PKI CLI, and many more improvements to the new LTS branch.
VyOS 1.4.0 is finally here as a full LTS release (although, it's early production access).
So many great features are highlighted in the post. I've been using 1.4 images for quite some time, with great success, in my labs. Looking forward to using this one more.
Congrats to the VyOS team.
Thanks for reporting back. Every time I looked at it's features, I came to roughly the same conclusions. Glad you actually did the work to try it, though.
Looks cool. Adding to my linkding. Thanks!
This release has such bangers. Was so excited to read it in my RSS feed today & comment here.
- IPv6 segment routing (SRv6) support
- BGP monitoring (BMP) suppor
- Firewall flowtable offload functionality
And the ultimate biggie: The long-awaited ability to rollback configuration without having to reboot is finally here (T5249).
Thanks so much to the VyOS team for an awesome RC.
Yet another reason to love VyOS
Yep, mainly because it's targetting DC/SP operators, rather than just the home
This is somehow worse than "five giant websites, each filled with screenshots of text from the other four"
You just hurt Huawei & Arista's feelings. /s
Cool project. Saving it for future reference, once I get a better handle on Rust.
Another vote for LibreNMS. I've been using it for a long time and it's just great for most small - relatively large orgs (you have to work a bit harder to deploy it properly / distributed, if you're going for a larger build).
I've also had Zabbix data piped into grafana and that was rock solid.... I just find that Zabbix requires quite a bit more finessing to get going, if you're not a seasoned sysadmin.
Pretty good suggestions here. Can't remember the last time I saw such quality replies on r/networking .
Wow.. I just uninstalled Boost after midnight. Looks like it will be back soon :)
Available now, with a new event handler, full container support, and more. Big thanks to all involved! #vyos #project #lts #release
Great project for anyone who likes what the Vyatta project was doing, or anyone who wants a more operator focused distribution of FRR.
Great job, everyone. Hoping this community becomes a lot more engaged & less superficial than the r/networking one.
Very dumb move by IBM Redhat
Jeff Geerling's take was good:

I went to NANOG88 last week. It was a great time, and I haven't been since 76 in DC.
They just posted the talks yesterday. Allow me to share some of my favourites I attended:
AWS deep dive ( architecture hints & hardware used in AWS):
New encrypted protocol stack (Mainly about QUIC pattern/flow detection & behaviour)
Those are just the ones that stood out. There are some other interesting ones that I attended or wanted to attend but was busy doing the hallway track. I will start drafting my blog post on the content, once I've reviewed my notes & the slides.
