• Pulling My Hair Out Over Netplan

  u/GamerLymx The setup goal was, originally, to set this up as a desktop testing router using FRRouting so I could experiment with some technologies I work with, namely OpenFabric without having to buy a $6k switch (Extreme Networks) as well as OSPF and EIGRP. However, I ran into some issues with setting up FRRouting and could not find sufficient information out there to overcome those. So I decided to just turn... Source: almost 2 years ago

• FRRouting and NordVPN

  Has anyone ever setup FRRouting to connect to a consumer VPN such as NordVPN? I have been Googling but have come up empty so I am assuming it is not something that can be done. Just the same, I thought I would ask in case I am asking the question wrong in my searches. Source: about 2 years ago

• VyOS From Scratch – Edition 1 (set up your own router)

  Might be worth adding a paragraph about what VyOS is, maybe not for the target audience but certainly for HN. https://vyos.io/ The VyOS website says: > Democratizing how we access networks through a universal Router and Open source software. > Our vision at VyOS is to dramatically change how we access networks so that we can all build the solutions we always dreamed of, without restrictions, limitations, or... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Advice for a high school networking lab

  VyOS https://vyos.io/ is my go-to for open source CLI focused router platform. Configuration syntax is similar to that of Juniper. I believe as an educational institution you would qualify for free LTS images from them. They’re super friendly to reach out to, and seems like they’re still actively developing some really cool features. They do support WiFi interfaces, among many others. Pretty decent online docs too!

• linux network project ideas

  There's VyOS if that's what you're looking for? If you want to do everything from scratch, just use Debian/Ubuntu and configure all the components individually. Source: 12 months ago

• VPN Site to SIte (Fortigate or Asus)

  If you absolutely have to do your homelab experiments in production, at least do it properly. Get some decent hardware (I just got a pair of these, they are fun: https://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm) and install something like https://vyos.io/ or opnsense or ipfire or something. Then you might actually learn something, plus in my experience these much more stable than cheapass consumer crap. Source: about 1 year ago
