Automatic certificate management provides support for retrieving signed x509v3 certificates from a server under the Enrollment over Secure Transport (EST) protocol, described in RFC 7030. The feature provides only EST client capabilities.

eAPI over SSH provides programmatic access to Arista EOS Command API using SSH as the transport protocol, offering an alternative to HTTP/HTTPS-based eAPI. This feature enables network automation tools and scripts to execute CLI commands and retrieve structured output via JSON-RPC 2.0 over an SSH connection.

The feature uses the standard SSH subsystem mechanism, allowing clients to invoke the "eapi" subsystem after SSH authentication. Commands and responses use the same JSON-RPC 2.0 format as HTTP-based eAPI, ensuring compatibility with existing eAPI client libraries and scripts with minimal modifications.

Customers currently leverage the event-handler for automated remediation such as auto-drain of nodes during specific triggers (blackholing scenarios, hardware failures). However, there are scenarios where the automation becomes counterproductive or risky during active incidents or anomalies.

As of EOS-4.36.0F, a configurable user session timeout is supported for console, SSH, and telnet management sessions. This feature closes the user session (interactive) once the specified duration has been reached, regardless of user activity and independent of any configured idle-timeout. Upon session termination, a system message is generated to indicate the session’s closure. This feature is disabled by default.
