I'm pleased to announce that VC5 has officially been released. The final version was the same as the Beta 3 version (5.0.2). If you're running the final beta, there is no need to upgrade. If you're not running the final version, you can either update using the stable package repository configuration, or you can reinstall from CD-ROM. ISO images are available on vyatta.org and vyatta.com.

For a list of features and other information, please see the final release notes on the documentation page:

Set it up and got it working in a test environment. Looks good so far.

I have 4 questions, that I'm hoping somebody can answer:

1) When I was going through GUI - i noticed section called "packages". Does that mean there are addons available somewhere? Where can I see them / read about it ?

2) Are there any graphs / live traffic information? Similar to what's available on m0n0wall, ipcop, pfsense, etc?

3) Is there ntop or a similar package, to monitor usage / utilization? Or any traffic sniffer? Right now with pfSense & ntop I'm able to pinpoint an ip that is consuming all the bandwidth, or at least was using a lot of bandwidth, that they shouldn't be using.

4) I saw somewhere that anti-virus feature is disabled for now due to some leagal issues? But is there some sort of spam monitoring? Web-proxy?

Thank you

It's set up to use the Vyatta repository for system updates. You can
add a Debian repository to add what you need, but, of course, anything
you add may impact other elements of the system.

No integrated graphing tools, but SNMP is supported so you can use
MRTG/Cacti etc.

You can use tshark directly, or you can perform a "show interfaces ...
capture" command to view traffic.

No anti-spam, but webproxy is integrated.

Best,

I've installed (from the debian repository) things like:

apt-get install munin-node
After tuning that you get graphs like:

I've installed things like vnstat:

Code:

rtr-1:~# vnstat -m -i eth5
