DAGNESSES MENES, Dayana. Experience in the use of the GNU / Linux VyOS Distribution as software for PC-routers in a Health institution. []. , 11, 2, pp.36-47. 01--2019. ISSN 1684-1859.
In this paper we present a GNU / Linux distribution that allows you to configure a router, in a desktop x86 hardware, with almost all the characteristics of a proprietary; with the aim of improving the network infrastructure, reducing costs, and increasing the security and availability of the services provided; also taking into account, the limitations of the country due to the economic blockade to which it is submitted by the United States. To do this, a documentary analysis was used as a method based on information retrieved from digital materials on the Internet, as well as experiences at the University Clinical Surgical Hospital "Dr. Ambrosio Grillo Portuondo ".
