I'm on a bit of a network related track recently. So this question goes somewhat hand in hand with my previous question about FOSS Load Balancing (http://fossfaq.com/questions/89/list-of-foss-load-balancing-software)

I have found two open source router offerings that are aimed directly at Cisco, Juniper, etc.

  1. http://www.vyatta.com/
  2. http://www.xorp.org

There other but they seem to mostly aimed at the home or SOHO router market - i.e. the Linksys/Netgear style routers you tend to use at home or a small business.

Does anyone know of any others?

Vyatta is the only option I'm familiar with, and it's well regarded by the folks that I know that use it. That said, stripped and customized *BSD and Linux boxes can be repurposed as routers, as the WR45T project demonstrates.

After digging some more I think Vyatta is the only viable alternative for deployment in an enterprise production network. – ctirpak Dec 4 at 21:11
