Simple Installation
Vyatta is an open source software Operating System that you may use to create your own personal router. It can do almost everything that a Cisco router can do and for less money.
The first thing you need to do is to go to the website Vyatta.org. You then need to go to the Downloads Section and find the iso file. Once you have the file on your computer you need to burn the iso image to a CD using ISO Image Burning software. Then place the CD in your CD bay and restart the computer with boot from CD enabled in BIOS.
Once you get into the Vyatta Options the first thing you will need to do is type install-system at the vyatta:~# command prompt.
vyatta:~# install-system
It will then ask you some questions about the installation process. Read carefully and answer the questions. It will partition your HDD with a selected size from your input. It will ask you some questions that have default options that you can hit the enter button to use the default options.
Commands
Vyatta does not support short hand abbreviations of the commands like cisco routers do. You also have to use the commit command after every command for it to become in effect. Any command that uses a subnet mask in Vyatta uses the slash notation 192.168.0.0/24
| Cisco Command | Vyatta Command | |

Troubleshooting
In this section we tell you the commands to do all the fun stuff you are required to prove that your network is vastly superior to other networks.Mostly all done in the operational mode on Vyatta!
| Cisco Command | Vyatta Command | |
|---|---|---|
| Ping | Ping | |
| tracert | tracert | |
| show ip route | show route | |
| show int int | show interfaces ethernet ethx | |
| show ip ospf neighbor | show ospf4 neighbor | |
| (config)debug ip rip | show debug rip | |
| (config)debug ip opsf events | debug ospf event | |
| show run | (config)show running-config | |
| copy run start | (config)save filename | |
| erase start | (config)delete the load up file path |
