Arista EOS
The Arista 7010T runs the same Arista EOS software as all Arista products, simplifying network administration. Arista EOS is a
modular switch operating system with a unique state sharing architecture that cleanly separates switch state from protocol
processing and application logic. Built on top of a standard Linux kernel, all EOS processes run in their own protected memory
space and exchange state through an in-memory database. This multi-process state sharing architecture provides the foundation
for in-service-software updates and self-healing resiliency.
With Arista EOS, advanced monitoring and automation capabilities such as Zero Touch Provisioning, VMTracer and Linux based
tools can be run natively on the switch with the powerful x86 CPU subsystem.
High Availability
The Arista 7010T series switches were designed for high availability from both a software and hardware perspective. Key high
availability features include:
• 1+1 Redundant internal power supplies
• Redundant and reversible dual inline fan module
• Color coded fan module to indicate airflow direction
• Live software patching
• Self healing software with Stateful Fault Repair (SFR)
• Up to 32 ports per link aggregation group (LAG)
• Multi-chassis LAG for active/active L2 multi-pathing
• 64-way ECMP routing for load balancing and redundancy
Out of Band Networks

Overview
Page 3
The 7010T provides for the consistent application of access controls, network security features and remote monitoring to protect
access to both dedicated management interfaces and restrict access to authorized users of out-of-band networks. Intelligent
Platform Management Interfaces (IPMI) on servers provide a standard interface for complete system management including
startup, management, maintenance and shutdown over standard Ethernet networks. Access to the IPMI ports allows for privileged
access and full control of the server. The Arista 7010T with EOS provides rich features that are applied to both the management
networks and the production data center networks consistently across the range of Arista 7000 Series switches.
Scaling Data Center Performance:
The Arista 7010T series delivers line rate switching at layer 2 and layer 3 to enable dramatically faster and simpler network
designs for data centers that lowers the network capital and operational expenses. When used in conjunction with the Arista 7000
series of fixed and modular switches it allows networks to scale to over 55,000 1G servers in a high performance and low-latency
two-tier network that provides predictable and consistent application performance. The flexibility of the L2 and L3 multi-path
design options combined with support for open standards provides maximum flexibility, scalability and network wide virtualization.
Arista EOS advanced features provide control and visibility with single point of management.
Maximum Flexibility for Scale Out Network Designs
Scale out network designs enable solutions to start small and evolve over time. A simple two-way design can grow as far as 64-way
without significant changes to the architecture. The Arista 7010T include enhancements that allow for flexible scale-out designs:
• 4 1/10G uplinks to provide scalable designs and balance traffic evenly across large scale 2 tier leaf-spine designs
• Flexible hash algorithms for efficient hashing, persistent hashing and custom lookups for tunneled protocols *
• Comprehensive L2 and L3 forwarding table resources for more design choice
• Wide choice of both 1G and 10G transceivers and cables for single port multi-speed flexibility
•sFlow and multi-port mirroring to detect micro-burst congestion and provide network wide visibility and monitoring *
•Openstack, Directflow* and eAPI for programmatic provisioning, configuration and management simplifying network
administration
Software Defined Networking
Arista Software Defined Cloud Networking (SDCN), combines the principles that have made cloud computing the unstoppable
force that it is: automation, self service provisioning, and linear scaling of both performance and economics coupled with the trend
in Software Defined Networking that delivers: network virtualization, custom programmability, simplified architectures, and lower
capital expenditure. This combination creates a best-in-class software foundation for maximizing the value of the network to both
the enterprise and service provider data center. A new architecture for the most mission-critical location within the IT infrastructure

that simplifies management and provisioning, speeds up service delivery, lowers costs and creates opportunities for competitive
differentiation, while putting control and visibility back in the hands of the network and systems administrators.
Advanced Event Management (AEM)
Simplifying the overall operations, AEM provides the tools to customize alerts and actions. AEM is a powerful and flexible set of
tools to automate tasks and customize the behavior of EOS and the operation of the overall data center switching infrastructure.
AEM allows operators to fully utilize the intelligence within EOS to respond to real-time events, automate routine tasks, and
automate actions based on changing network conditions.
Enhanced Features for High Performance Networks
The Arista 7010T deliver a suite of advanced traffic control and monitoring features to improve the agility of modern high
performance environments, with solutions for data monitoring, and next-generation virtualization.
Next Generation Provisioning and Monitoring
Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) combined with other Arista features, like VMTracer's adaptive VLAN configuration allows data
center managers to fully automate the bring-up of network elements and virtual servers and leverage Arista's unique 'hands-off'
provisioning.
Designed to integrate with VMware, OpenStack and Microsoft OMI, Arista’s open architecture allows for integration with any
virtualization and orchestration system providing visibility to the VM-level enabling portable policies, persistent monitoring and
rapid troubleshooting of cloud networks.
Unified Forwarding Table
Cloud network scalability is directly impacted by the size of a switches forwarding tables. In many systems discrete fixed sized
tables are used for each of the common types of forwarding entries with additional memory required to expand any one table. In
cloud environments correctly sizing these tables is critical to allow for flexible network scaling. The Arista 7010T leverages a
common unified forwarding table for the L2 MAC, L3 Host and IP Multicast forwarding table entries that allows each table to be
sized correctly for the solution. Each of these table size varies depending on the network deployment scenario. A large choice of
pre-defined configuration profiles are available on the 7010T to enable optimal resource utilization for all network topologies and
network virtualization technologies - L2, L3, or L2overL3 overlay.
EOS Software Licensed Features
Arista EOS delivers a comprehensive feature set along with single image consistency with all other Arista switches. The default EOS
system software has a broad Layer 2 feature set with extensive monitoring and provisioning, security, QoS and management
features. Layer 3 IPv4 and IPv6 unicast and IPv4 multicast routing functions require the Enhanced license, and VMTracer requires
the Virtualization license.
