Vyatta's network operating system is optimized to run in virtual environments to manage traffic and enforce policies in the same way that a physical router, firewall, VPN or intrusion prevention device does in a traditional infrastructure. Where popular hypervisors include only a simple layer 2 vSwitch, Vyatta completes the network virtualization picture with vFirewallTM and vRouterTM functionality in our Vyatta software-based networking solution.

The Advantages of Using Vyatta Virtualized
- Migrate routing & security policies from physical to virtual
- Integrated XenServer & open-vm-tools for increased performance
- Xen Para-virtualization
- Secure virtualized applications
- Protect virtual hypervisor management console
- Reduce datacenter footprint by removing proprietary hardware
- Use VMotion for live migration of Vyatta virtual machines
Vyatta Virtual Router, Firewall, VPN Deployment Scenarios | |
| The Vyatta vRouter, vFirewall software lends itself to a variety of virtualization and cloud deployment models. We have outlined some of the ways that Vyatta addresses the routing and security needs of virtual infrastructures on http://www.vrouter.net and in our Vyatta Network Virtualization Application Brief >> Note: Links will open pages on Vyatta Microsite vRouter.net | |
 |
Consolidation - Inter-VM Security Adding Vyatta vRouter and vFirewall functions can help maintain security policies that were designed for physical networks and provide the same security and traffic management for communications between virtual machines. Click for Detail >> |
 |
Hypervisor / Platform Protection Including Vyatta vFirewall, vRouter and virtual VPN on virtual servers offers administrators a powerful tool to control and manage local and remotes access to the management console of the hypervisor or virtualization platform. Click for Detail >> |
 |
Consolidation - SMB/Branch Resource Maximization Collapsing many software-based applications into a single hardware device minimizes space and power requirements, maximizes hardware usage, and offers simplified management. Vyatta's integrated routing and security software serves as solid foundation for building customized edge devices and service platforms. Click for Detail >> |
 |
Consolidation - Datacenter Resource Maximization As businesses consolidate data center resources internally or in colocation environments Vyatta allows for further reduction in space requirements and optimal server utilization. Vyatta software can add complete routing, firewall, VPN and intrusion prevention services to the virtual datacenter. Click for Detail>> |
 |
Live Migration - Redundancy, Failover & Testing Using live migration functionality such as VMotion, users migrating networking functionality to virtual environments can easily migrate a fully configured virtual appliance from one system to another. This allows for simple migration of configurations from a testing server to a live server or from a failed server to another live system whether across the datacenter or across the world.

 |
Application Density - Horizontal Virtualization By virtualizing Vyatta, you can use a single hardware system with multiple virtual machines, each running a separate Vyatta instance. Each Vyatta instance is distinct and can be configured separately-and differently-from others sharing the same hardware. Users can even have command-line or GUI management access to the Vyatta virtual machines, just as if they were physical systems. Click for Details >> |
 |
Cloud Security - Datacenter to Cloud VPN Vyatta allows users to create a complete end-to-end network from your corporate datacenter, running on virtual servers, through the VPN to the network in the cloud. All servers and hosts communicate securely over SSL VPN and provide an extra layer of security for traffic traversing the intra-cloud network. Click for Details >> |

Cloud Security - Cloud to Cloud VPN & Routing Using Vyatta Amazon Machine Image (AMI coming soon) for a site-to-site SSL VPN connection between Amazon EC2 based clouds to create a secure network between the two for the transfer of data. Click for Details >> |
