Thank you for your continuous support and engagement.
Just my own personal opinion here, but, hopefully the CLI isn’t abandoned or made a second class citizen in favor of GUI. The whole reason I came to VyOS was for the CLI and the fact that it is more of a router focused distribution (with good stateful firewalling of course). IMO, there are already other projects out there with GUI’s and fancy firewall capabilities, if that is what I wanted I would be using those.
I agree. Even if it is a learning curve to be using CLI once you start doing so you will find its so much faster and easier than digging through some GUI back and forth.
With that being said I prefer GUI for a quick “get to know the product” but once in production I prefer CLI.
Systems that are based on CLI will often struggle by slapping a web-gui to that. Compared to lets say PaloAlto Networks who went first with the web-gui and later added a CLI goodie bag.
When doing web-gui a request would be to be able to have a terminal through the webbrowser.
@Apachez@p252 Thank you for sharing your perspective and ideas, as they help foster discussions and drive the evolution of VyOS to better meet the needs of its users.
