Vyatta – a Debian based Linux distribution, which transform a standard x86/x86-64 machine into an enterprise-class router/firewall.

Vyatta provides software-based virtual router, virtual firewall and VPN products for Internet Protocol networks (IPv4 and IPv6). It contains networking applications such as Quagga, OpenVPN, ant many others.

The Vyatta system is intended as a replacement for Cisco IOS 1800 through ASR 1000[2] series Integrated Services Routers (ISR) and ASA 5500 security appliances, with a strong emphasis on the cost and flexibility inherent in an open source, Linux-based system[3] running on commodity x86 hardware or in VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, Open Source Xen and KVM virtual environments.

In 2012, Brocade Communications Systems acquired Vyatta and renamed it “Vyatta, a Brocade Company”.
In April, 2013, Brocade renamed the product from the Vyatta Subscription Edition (VSE) to the Brocade Vyatta 5400 vRouter.

In October 2013 an independent group started a fork of Vyatta Core under a new name VyOS.
