Vyatta Referral Program Now Available to non-US Residents

Well I myself just attempted to sign up for the Vyatta referral program last evening. I got half way through filling out the form and was sad to discover that the program was only available to US residents.

Believe it or, but I was just informed this afternoon by email from Tom McCafferty, Director of Marketing for Vyatta Inc, that the referral program is now available to non-US residents starting today!

Matt,

You have incredible timing. I was in the process of updating some of our partner programs last night when your e-mail came through. The web referral program is now available to users outside of the US. You can apply at http://www.vyatta.com/partners/webref.php

I encourage any of you interested in this program to sign up for the Vyatta referral program.

This would probably also be a good time to encourage those of you unfamiliar with Vyatta to download a free copy today and check it out. Whether you are just using a Linux box as a router doing IP Masquerading / NAT, or your using Cisco routers or PIX / ASA firewalls, I really recomend you give Vyatta a try, I think you’ll be incredibly impressed. If you are using Linux boxes as routers, I think you’ll really appreciate the streamlined configuration that Vyatta gives you using its Fusion CLI. If you are thinking about purchasing some Cisco gear, you’ll be even more impressed with how Vyatta is competing with Cisco at a fraction of the cost!

Vyatta offers its product in several forms, there is a free community edition, a subscription edition which includes enterprise support, and Vyatta appliances.
