CloudVision Software Lifecycle
- CloudVision Portal (CVP) – software deployed on-premises
- CloudVision Appliance Software (CVA) – software deployed on the CloudVision hardware appliance
- CloudVision as-a-Service (cloud service) – referred to in this document for EOS and Streaming Agent support only
The Software Release Policy and Lifecycle defines the various phases of development and support to guide customers in transitioning to newer versions of the product based on the milestones in the lifecycle. Arista Networks will support each major software release train of CloudVision Portal and the CloudVision Appliance Software for up to 24 months from the general availability date for a particular train. The following diagram depicts the release phases and the Arista TAC support mapping across this timeline.
- Major release with new features and functionality
- Active maintenance releases for bug fixes as needed
- TAC support available
- Ongoing TAC support
- Software upgrade required for bug fixes
The following table depicts the CloudVision Portal release support matrix, including the timelines for each major software train (based on the 24 month life cycle policy) and includes the current state of support for each train.

EOS Support Lifecycle in CloudVision
The EOS Support Lifecycle in CloudVision applies to both on-premises CloudVision deployments and Cloud as-a-Service. Each CloudVision on-premises release has a minimum and maximum supported EOS release, as specified in the release notes. This also applies to CloudVision as-a-Service (and available on the Settings page in CloudVision).
When an EOS train goes end of support, we do not explicitly remove support from CloudVision, however we stop testing newer CloudVision releases against that EOS train. While most CloudVision features will likely continue to work against the now unsupported EOS train, that support is best effort. Upgrading the EOS devices through CloudVision to reach a supported EOS release is supported, and is the recommended path.
To assist with customer migration of EOS on devices, CloudVision supports an EOS train for at least 12 months after the train’s end-of-support date, as reflected in the table below.

Streaming Agent (TerminAttr) Support Lifecycle in CloudVision
Each CloudVision on-premises release has a minimum supported TerminAttr version, as specified in the release notes. This also applies to CloudVision as-a-Service.
We set the minimum supported TerminAttr to minimize the need for customers running EOS trains that are still actively supported from having to install a TerminAttr extension. For devices running EOS trains that are past their end of support date, but are still supported by CloudVision, a TerminAttr extension may be required. A TerminAttr extension may also be required for devices running EOS trains whose support has been extended past the normal 3 year period for specific hardware platforms.
When a TerminAttr release goes end-of-support, we do not explicitly remove support from CloudVision, however we stop testing newer CloudVision releases against that TerminAttr release. While most CloudVision features will likely continue to work against the now unsupported TerminAttr train, that support is best effort. In rare cases the CloudVision Service may not be able to continue to support a given TerminAttr release once it is out of support, and the device will lose connectivity at that point. Upgrading the TerminAttr version CloudVision to reach a supported TerminAttr release is supported, and is the recommended path.
The Expected End of Support in CloudVision dates provide guidance for CloudVision as-a-Service and on-premises releases.
