4.29.1F adds Latency Analyzer (LANZ) support to the Arista SwitchApp on 7130 series. LANZ monitors SwitchApp internal buffer congestion. When the number of bytes in a buffer is over a high threshold, a congestion start event is created. When the number of bytes in a buffer is below a low threshold, a congestion end event occurs. LANZ on SwitchApp does not report any congestion update as the buffer sizes are too small for it to be meaningful. As SwitchApp comes in different profiles, each profile has a different hardware behavior due to the underlying architectural difference.

MetaMux is an FPGA-based feature available on Arista’s 7130 platforms. It performs ultra-low latency Ethernet packet multiplexing with or without packet contention queuing. The port to port latency is a function of the selected MetaMux profile, front panel ingress port, front panel egress port, FPGA connector ingress port, and platform being used.
