From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

We used to run firewalls running Fedora at work, works fine. Issue is you're only getting 6 months of updates, best to look at Rocky Linux for something that doesn't change much if you do anything beyond a single program.
anedotally: it works fine if it's from a vendor who provides support for it. eg cumulus switches running fedora 9 but still getting updates from cumulus engineers.
