VyOS #239

Closed slaiddominio closed 4 months ago

slaiddominio commented 4 months ago

Is it possible to use pathvector on the VyOS system, without the need to install Bird on VyOS?

ServerForge commented 4 months ago

It is not. It would need to be modified to generate syntax for VyOS. I have seen a few people try and get bird working on VyOS but it doesn't work well. VyOS does support running containers via podman, your best bet if you wanted to try it would be to run bird and pathvector in a container and have VyOS peer with the container.

This is correct. Technically VyOS is just Debian so you can run whatever you want on there, but the effort required likely outweighs the benefit over running plain Debian with Pathvector.
