VyOS Additional Support Project for Educational Institutions

BARCLEONA, Spain, March 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sentrium announces the launch of VyOS additional support project for educational institutions.

The open-source community recognizes the importance of all work performed by teachers, educators, researchers, and people of other community-oriented professions. It is that impact that keeps the balance today and prepares young minds for a brighter tomorrow. This initiative is only gratitude for an opportunity to give something in return.

Modern educational institutions face the need to regulate internet connectivity, protect more online-stored data, build efficient cloud-based solutions, and enforce access control from dozens of servers or Wi-Fi hotspots at a time. With as much on educational institutions plate as is, VyOS welcome all teachers, educators, researchers, to take a critical element of IT infrastructure off their mind with a free Access Subscription. In addition to both a cloud- and a bare metal-compatible software router and firewall, they will receive access to LTS releases, advanced technical support, and additional benefits of a paid subscription through filling the next form to apply.
