Ubiquiti_Links

VyOS is an Open Source Debian-based Router OS. It's a fork of the Vyatta OS developed by Brocade.

Ubiquiti's carrier grade Network hardware uses a modified version of VyOS for it's "EdgeOS."

Below are links I found found useful when planning, building, deploying, & Troubleshooting networks with a focus on the VyOS adjacent platforms.
