General Questions
What is VyOS?
VyOS is a routing/firewall/VPN platform , forked from Vyatta, based on Debian GNU/Linux that runs
on x86 and ARM hardware and many virtual machine hypervisors.

WebVPN,
PPTP and L2TP clients,
IPv6 flow accounting.
Most of the currently lacking features are to be implemented in future releases.
Installation
What hardware requirements does VyOS have?
Hardware requirements strongly depend on purpose your appliance is used for. For small branch
offices Atom/C3 CPU and 256-384M RAM should be enough; for edge routers, large VPN
concentrators and other high loaded appliances you should consider powerful servers.

system image <image URL>". You may download the image to your appliance and specify path to
file as the argument, or specify a remote URL.
Do not use 'full-upgrade -k', it may ruin your setup irrecoverable.
Usage
How do I install Debian packages?
open in browser PRO version
pdfcrowd.com
For 1.0.x/1.1.x
First configure repositories. The Hydrogen and Helium releases are based on Debian Squeeze
(which is EOL at the moment so we use the Debian archive):
set system package repository squeeze components 'main contrib non-free'
set system package repository squeeze distribution 'squeeze'
set system package repository squeeze url
'http://archive.debian.org/debian'
Squeeze is no longer supported, however Hydrogen and Helium have some packages from
Squeeze Long Term Support so:
set system package repository squeeze-lts components 'main contrib nonfree'
set system package repository squeeze-lts distribution 'squeeze-lts'
set system package repository squeeze-lts url
'http://archive.debian.org/debian'
Then
commit && save;exit
because repository is expiried you should update it with validation-ignoring option:
sudo apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update
open in browser PRO version
pdfcrowd.com
and you can install packages with "sudo apt-get install xxxxxxx" as usual.

Troubleshooting
How do I view logs?
Use operational command "monitor log" to view all log messages. You also may use "show log tail"
comand to monitor latest messages in real time.
Development
Which branch should I develop on
Development efforts should be directed towards VyOS 1.2. VyOS 1.1.6 is developed on the lithium
branch in the Github. Use the build-iso package to start building (Howto build an ISO image,
