RouterOS is a network operating system based on the Linux kernel developed by MikroTik, pre-installed on RouterBOARD devices. It can also be installed on a PC, turning it into a router with a firewall, VPN server and client, and wireless access point. The system can serve as a customizable captive portal for a wireless access point. Additionally, MikroTik offers RouterOS images for use in virtual machines and cloud services, called Cloud Hosted Router (CHR), available as a virtual machine disk image for various virtualization solutions, including the Amazon Web Services marketplace.
