PLEASED TO MEET YOU |
|
We've just returned from
Interop Las Vegas where we met with tons of customers, users and new
Vyatta converts. During the three day event we handed out almost
1000 CDs and got the opportunity to share the Vyatta story with
thousands of networking professionals both on the show floor and
during
Dave's session with Cisco & Juniper. Thank you all for
stopping by our booth.
For those of you that are new to Vyatta and our Yatta Yatta
newsletter, welcome to the Vyatta community - we're glad that you
are considering Vyatta as your the routing and security solution for
your network.

VYATTA
CONNECTS CITYWIDE NETWORK |
HOW POWERFUL IS VYATTA?
In Portland Texas,
Vyatta was used as the core router with 24 GigE ports as well as in
small units in patrol cars, fire vehicles, microwave towers, servers
in various city buildings and more to create a MAN (Metro Area
Network). Vyatta software is used for routing, firewall, VPN
and intrusion prevention to connect & protect the city's data and
VoIP infrastructure.
"I could easily see us spending well over $250,000 for Cisco
equipment to replicate what we did here for less than $10,000 with Vyatta," - Terrell Elliot - City of Portland Texas

QUAGGA BGP BUG FIXED |
From the "Why should I purchase Vyatta?" files...
On Sunday May 3, a bug was discovered in Quagga that caused a BGP
crash . Vyatta TAC identified the problem and notified subscription
customers immediately. Vyatta subscription edition customers were
delivered a patch in under 24 hours.
When things like this happen we hate to leave our community users
waiting for a patch, but it's not a simple task to
rebuild code, test fixes, and work with
customers to get patches applied. Our subscription customers will
always be our priority. This is why Vyatta recommends that
users running Vyatta in production networks purchase subscriptions
and/or Vyatta appliances.
