Each ARP/ND packet into a switch may generate an update for the switch ARP/Neighbor table and this update may need to be synchronized with the MLAG peer when VXLAN is configured. Prior to this feature, these updates (on a VXLAN setup) are synchronized by sending an UDP packet (one packet per update) containing the IP/MAC/VLAN information from the MLAG peer where the ARP/ND packet is received to the other MLAG peer.

For network monitoring and troubleshooting flow related issues, it is desirable to know the path, latency, queue and congestion information for flows at different times. The inband telemetry feature(INT), based on Inband Flow Analyzer RFC draft -IFA 2.0 and IFA 1.0(on some platforms) , is used to gather per flow telemetry information like path, per hop latency and congestion. INT is supported for both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

Starting from software version 4.34.1F, the CLI configuration to enable or disable DSCP preserve globally on the egress interface introduces a clear distinction in the behavior of GUE encapsulation on the core facing interface of the IP-over-UDP tunnels.

Arista access points (APs) support the integration of SESimagotag’s Electronic Shelf Labels (ESLs), which dynamically display prices and offers in retail environments. The SES-Imagotag Retail IoT Connector (USB dongle) connects automatically to the ESLs through a proprietary protocol based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. This dongle plugs into the USB port of Arista APs and is managed by SESimagotag’s Serial Communication Daemon (SCD). The SCD ensures seamless AP and USB dongle connectivity to VusionCloud.

One of the reasons why Wi-Fi clients encounter RF issues is non-Wi-Fi interference. All Wi-Fi 6 and above APs can perform interference classification. CloudVision Cognitive Unified Edge (CV-CUE) classifies interference into four categories — Wi-Fi, Microwave Oven (MWO), Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS), and Continuous Wave (CW).

Since the addresses assigned within a VRF may be non-routable private addresses which cannot be directly used when going to the Internet, the NAT feature is used as a part of the Internet exit solution to provide internet connectivity.

IPv6 multicast routing protocols are used to distribute IPv6 datagrams to one or more recipients. IPv6 PIM builds and maintains multicast routing using reverse path forwarding (RPF) based on the unicast routing table. IPv6 PIM is protocol-independent and can use routing tables consisting of OSPFv3, IPv6 BGP or static routes, for RPF lookup. MLD is used to discover multicast hosts and maintain group membership on a directly attached link.

With this feature, Arista 7050 and 7050X series of switches can now decapsulate IP in IP tunneled packets. When IP in IP decapsulation is configured, incoming packets with an outer IP header having IpProto=4 (IP in IP) and IpDest matching the one configured will be decapsulated, meaning that the outer IP header will be removed from the packet and all subsequent forwarding decisions will be based on the inner IP header.

When the next hop of an IP route (hereafter referred to as the dependent route) resolves over another IP route (hereafter referred to as the resolving route), the adjacency information of the resolving route’s FEC is typically duplicated into the dependent route’s FEC. With this feature, we prevent the duplication of the adjacency information. Instead, the dependent route’s FEC points to the resolving route’s FEC, forming a hierarchical FEC for the dependent route.
