Building a VyOS image for use in Rackspace OpenStack Flex

In the beginning there was Vyatta, a free software-based alternative to hardware-based routing products offered by network beheamoths like Cisco and Juniper. After being acquired by Brocade, development of Vyatta Core, the community edition of the product, began to languish until its abandonment shortly thereafter. VyOS formed from the ashes and has continued to build upon the core to deliver a highly-functional and highly-competitive routing platform.
