Comment on Let's talk about free/FOSS routing platforms for the homelab

I tried opn/ pfsense, VyOS (the rolling one. Stable is paid only), and a couple commercial options. Surprisingly not a single free/foss option can do IPv6 properly (I was looking specifically for prefix delegation for downstream routers). Cashed out for a single RouterOS CHR license and never bothered since.
But otherwise I tend to like VyOS. the rolling releases as the only free option make it somewhat questionable for something more serious though.

Stable is not “pay only” . Just build it yourself, all tools are available. it will take 30 minutes of your time if you have docker environment ready.

oh, that’s actually a fair point! You’re correct.
DHCPv6-PD is still effectively broken, though.
