Here is a comparison of some characteristics you can find on four routers: the first two are the best open source routers available, Quagga and Vyatta and the remaining two are commercial devices and best-sellers from Cisco: a standard router from the 26xx family and a Layer Three Switch 3750.

  The protocol is supported.
Available on specific Cisco IOSs only.
There is a major bug on the protocol.
Not supported on the Quagga router but can be enabled at the Linux level.
Openswan can be used as an implementation of IPsec for Linux.
OpenVPN can be used to build SSL VPNs on Linux.
Each routing protocol daemon and the zebra kernel routing manager have to be telnetted separately.
Quagga must be compiled with the SNMP functionality.
Ping or traceroute must be installed at the Linux level to be used under Quagga.
