I have an EdgeRouter X and I'm searching for a replacement.
EdgeRouter X issues:
* 3.10 kernel. This is out of LTS support.
* Poor IPv6 support. The GUI has practically 0 support and you instead have to learn EdgeOS config, and it's awkward.
I'm happy to use EdgeRouter X as a switch, so I'm looking for a SBC that can act as router/firewall and run vanilla Debian.
- NoErx 8y agoScratch that. Upon reading VyOS's docs for the EdgeOS config (which has relatively poorer docs), it has strong advantages: commit/rollback, single config file, and Ansible has an EdgeOS module included by default to coordinate that.
- ac29 8y agoThe latest development release updates the ER-X to kernel 4.4, which is LTS until at least 2022. The base OS is updated to Debian Stretch also. I think that's a pretty good level of support for a $49 device.
