Vyatta VC4 Changing Locale

You might want to change locale your locale settings on your Vyatta router.
This is especially helpful when using console with non-english keyboard at your hands.

You can do this using the standard Debian way. Set Default Language.
dpkg-reconfigure locales
Select the ones to be generated and set the one that will be your default locale.

Set Keyboard Layout. Since this package is not installed on Vyatta by default, you have to install it.
apt-get console-tools console-data
If you wish to change it later, just run the following command.
dpkg-reconfigure console-data
Set your keyboard and you're done!
