Maintenance Mode
This section describes configuration for performing maintenance of switch elements.
This section contains these topics:
Overview
Using maintenance mode, you can perform several maintenance activities such as:
- EOS image upgrade
- Initial configuration or reconfiguration of a production system
- Replacement of hardware
- Changing linecards or transceiver modules
- Replace, reattach, and reroute cables
Maintenance mode uses BGP to divert traffic away from the switch on which the maintenance tasks need to be performed, minimizing traffic impact. You can set the traffic thresholds and time limits at which the switch, or parts of the switch, is considered to be available for maintenance tasks.
Maintenance mode can be activated on a switch at boot-up or during operation. The mode provides the following benefits:
- Rerouting of traffic when the mode is activated during operation and other routes are present
- Replacement of hardware in modular systems or systems with redundant hardware
The switch is placed into maintenance mode, serviced, and then returned to normal operation.
Maintenance Mode Elements
Maintenance mode elements include Units, Groups of Interfaces and BGP Peers, and Profiles. Arista Network switches provide maintenance mode operations performed on a fundamental, configurable element, referred to as a Unit. Maintenance mode will quiesce a unit, which places the unit into maintenance mode by gracefully transitioning traffic away from it.
The most common maintenance mode operations such as removing from service an entire switch system or individual components of the switch, including a single linecard, interface, or BGP peer, can be achieved using minimal configuration.
Units
Units are configurable maintenance mode elements that comprise a collection of various groups. In addition, units contain policies which decide whether the member groups should be put into maintenance mode automatically upon boot. Built-in units are configured by default, such as the System unit representing the entire system. All maintenance mode operations are executed at the unit level.
An interface, interface range, and BGP peer (or peer-group) can be directly put under maintenance.
Built-in Units
There are various built-in units such as System and Linecard<n>. Fixed systems contain only one built-in unit called System, which comprises the interface group containing all Ethernet interfaces and sub-interfaces; and BGP groups per VRF containing all the peers in the respective VRF.
Modular Systems have both System and Linecard<n> units. Linecard<n> units are present for each linecard which comprises the Linecard<n> groups containing all Ethernet interfaces and sub-interfaces of that linecard.
User-configured Units
You can also configure customized units containing user-defined groups and policies as shown in the following example. A custom group called BG1 with a custom interface IG1 and a unit profile UP1 is created. The show command displays the details.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#unit UNIT1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#group bgp BG1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#group interface IG1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#profile unit UP1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#show maintenance units

Groups of Interfaces and BGP Peers
Maintenance mode group types include the groups for interfaces and BGP peers. Groups are identified by a group name unique to a particular group type.
By default, several built-in groups are available on the device such as linecard groups containing physical interfaces.
Built-in Groups
There are several built-in groups such as AllEthernetInterface, Linecard1, Linecard2, etc., AllBgpNeighborVrf-<vrf_name>. AllEthernetInterface is the built-in interface group which contains all physical Ethernet interfaces and sub-interfaces on the switch, and is a part of System unit. Whereas on modulars Linercard1, Linecard2, etc., are the built-in groups which contain respective linecard interfaces and sub-interfaces; and are part of the Linecard1 and Linecard2 units respectively. AllBgpNeighborVrf-<vrf_name> is the built-in BGP group which contains all the BGP peers in that particular VRF.
User-defined Groups
The following set of commands sets up a custom group (IG1) of interfaces, which includes physical ports, port-channels and SVIs.
switch(config)#group interface IG1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Ethernet1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Port-Channel1,20
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Vlan1-20
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#exit
switch(config)#
The following set of commands sets up a custom group (BG1) of BGP peers.
switch(config)#group bgp BG1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#neighbor 10.0.0.1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#neighbor BGP_PG1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#vrf vrf1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#exit
switch(config)#
Profiles
Profiles are configurable maintenance mode elements that define policies for related software or hardware components to carry out maintenance mode operations.
Default Profiles
Default profiles are the built-in policies which are applied to groups interface/BGP and unit.
The default profile is used in the absence of an explicit interface/BGP profile associated with the group, or explicit unit profile associated with the unit.
- Interface Profile
Default interface profile has rate-monitoring load-interval set to 60 seconds, threshold set to 100 kbps, and shutdown disabled as shown. The max-delay parameter is set to 300 seconds but is not enabled.
switch(config-maintenance)#show maintenance profile interface default
Interface Profile: Default
Rate Monitoring:
load-interval: 60 seconds
threshold (in/out): 100 kbps
shutdown:

User-defined Profiles
You can define your own profiles which can be associated to groups or set as default profiles.
Interface Profile: The following set of commands sets up an Interface Profile(IP1) with load interval set to 10 seconds, rate-monitoring threshold set to 100kbps and the maximum delay for shutting down the interface set to 100 seconds. The interface will be shutdown with cause maint-down if traffic does not drain below the threshold even after the specified maximum delay period of 100 seconds.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile interface IP1
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#rate-monitoring load-interval 10
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#rate-monitoring threshold 100
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#shutdown max-delay 100
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
An interface profile can be associated to only interface groups using the following set of commands.
switch(config)#group interface IG1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#maintenance profile interface IP1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#exit
switch(config)#
You can set the interface profile as the default interface profile using the following set of commands.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile interface IP1 default
switch(config-maintenance)#exit
switch(config)#
Bgp Profile: The following set of commands sets up a BGP profile(BP1) with initiator route-map called RM which will be applied for both inbound and outbound directions.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile bgp BP1
switch(config-profile-bgp-BP1)#initiator route-map RM inout
switch(config-profile-bgp-BP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
A BGP profile can be associated to both interface and bgp groups using the following commands.
switch(config)#group interface IG1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#maintenance profile bgp BP1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#exit
switch(config)#group bgp BG1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#maintenance profile bgp BP1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#exit
switch(config)#
You can set the bgp profile as the default bgp profile using the following set of commands.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile bgp BP1 default
switch(config-maintenance)#exit
switch(config)#
Unit Profile: The following set of commands sets up a Unit profile(UP1) with on-boot duration of 300 seconds. The unit will enter into maintenance mode at boot-up and exit maintenance mode at the end of 5 minutes (300sec) after boot-up.
switch(config-maintenance)#profile unit UP1
switch(config-profile-unit-UP1)#on-boot duration 300
switch(config-profile-unit-UP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
A Unit profile can be associated to a Unit using the following commands.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#unit UNIT1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#profile unit UP1
switch(config-unit-UNIT1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
You can set the Unit profile as the default Unit profile using the following set of commands.
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile unit UP1 default
switch(config-maintenance)#exit
switch(config)#
Maintenance Mode Features
Arista Network switches provide maintenance mode features including rate monitoring, BGP maintenance route map, on-boot maintenance, and EventMgr integration.
Rate Monitoring
Rate monitoring provides a mechanism to monitor traffic on interfaces identified for maintenance. You can set the traffic threshold and a time limit for the interface to be shutdown for maintenance tasks.
A shutdown parameter can be configured in the interface profile that signals the interface to be shutdown after it has entered maintenance mode.
The max-delay parameter specifies the maximum number of seconds to allow for traffic to dissipate from the interface before the interface is shutdown. The default interface profile settings are shown in the output of the show maintenance profile interface default command.
BGP Maintenance Route Map
Route-maps are used within a BGP maintenance profile to tag the inbound and outbound routes in order to direct traffic away from the unit.
The default profile tags the inbound and outbound routes with the global shutdown community. Other methods can be configured under the route-map such as alternate communities, or by using AS_PATH prepend operations.
On-boot Maintenance
There are two ways of placing a unit in maintenance mode on switch boot-up:
- The unit is placed into maintenance mode prior to the switch reboot, and the running-config is saved prior to switch boot-up.
- The on-boot property in the unit maintenance profile specifies that the unit will
be placed into maintenance mode as part of boot-up, and remains so for the specified
duration. Note: The duration value in the on-boot unit maintenance profile starts as soon as the unit is put into maintenance mode on boot-up.
Maintenance Mode Configuration
You can configure maintenance mode for the entire device, specific linecards, or any other Unit. You can set up configuration for maintenance mode for the device at boot-up or while it is running.
Unit (System, Linecardn, etc.) Configuration
Arista Network switches provide the ability to place the switch in maintenance mode, and configuration options for groups, profiles, associating profiles with groups, units, and maintenance mode operations. System is a predefined (built-in) unit on all switches. Built-in groups include AllEthernetInterface, AllBgpNeighborVRF-<vrf_name>, and Linecardn. Linecardn can also be a built-in unit and can be differentiated depending on the command being used as shown.
-
switch(config-maintenance)#unit Linecardn
-
switch(config)#group interface Linecardn
Built-in unit System comprises the following groups:
- AllEthernetInterface - a built-in interface group which contains all physical Ethernet interfaces on the switch on a fixed system
- Linecardn - a built-in interface group which contains all interfaces for the linecard numbered n for modular systems
- AllBgpNeighborVRF-<vrf_name> - a built-in BGP group which contains all the BGP peers in the named VRF.
For each Linecard n, there is a built-in unit which consists of all the Linecardn groups.
By default, the default interface and BGP profiles are applied to the built-in interface and BGP groups and the default built-in unit profile is applied to the built-in unit. You can also configure your own profiles and choose a default.
In the following example, traffic is flowing through multiple switches in the spine to and from one switch to another, when you elect to put one of the Units (entire switch or parts thereof) in the spine switch in maintenance mode. The traffic is then gracefully steered away from the Unit, provided other paths are available. Traffic will continue to flow through the Unit placed into maintenance mode, if no other path is available.
Example


You can see the status of the Unit (System) using the show maintenance units System command for the example above before the system is placed into maintenance mode. If the device being placed into maintenance mode is modular and the Unit is a linecard, replace the argument System with Linecardn to see the status of the Unit (Linecardn).
switch(config)#show maintenance units System
Unit Name: System
Origin: Built-in
Status: Not Under Maintenance
Unit Profile: Default
Time Since Last State Change: never
Bgp Groups:
AllBgpNeighborVrf-default
Interface Groups:
AllEthernetInterface
You can then place the Unit (System) into maintenance mode and recheck the status using the sequence of commands shown.
switch(config-maintenance)#unit System
switch(config-builtin-unit-System)#quiesce
switch(config-builtin-unit-System)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#show maintenance

On-boot Maintenance Mode Configuration
To configure on-boot maintenance, you can use one of two methods:
- Use quiesce config or
- Use on-boot profile
Using quiesce config
You must perform the following tasks to place the Unit in maintenance mode on boot-up using the quiesce command.
Using on-boot profile
The on-boot property in the Unit maintenance profile specifies that the Unit will be placed into maintenance mode as part of boot-up for the specified duration. You must perform the following tasks to use this method.
Interface-level Maintenance Mode Configuration
To configure the maintenance mode at interface-level, you must perform the following tasks:
Entering Maintenance Mode
Enter configuration commands unit and quiesce using the maintenance profile bgp mode command to place the switch into maintenance mode. The following code sequence places unit foo, the interface 3/3, and BGP 1.1.1.1 in maintenance mode.
Example
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#unit foo
switch(config-unit-foo)#quiesce
switch(config-unit-foo)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#interface ethernet 3/3
switch(config-maint-if-Et3/3)#quiesce
switch(config-unit-if-Et3/3)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#bgp 1.1.1.1
switch(config-maint-bgp-1.1.1.1)#quiesce
switch(config-maint-bgp-1.1.1.1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
Exiting Maintenance Mode
Enter configuration commands unit and no quiesce using the maintenance profile bgp mode command for the switch to exit maintenance mode. The following code sequence causes unit foo, the interface 3/3, and BGP 1.1.1.1 to exit maintenance mode.
Example
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#unit foo
switch(config-unit-foo)#no quiesce
switch(config-unit-foo)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#interface ethernet 3/3
switch(config-maint-if-Et3/3)#quiesce
switch(config-unit-if-Et3/3)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#bgp 1.1.1.1
switch(config-maint-bgp-1.1.1.1)#no quiesce
switch(config-maint-bgp-1.1.1.1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
Configuring Event Handlers
Enter configuration options for the show maintenance command to fire at different stages while entering or exiting maintenance mode.
Example for Maintenance Mode Event Handler for all Stages
switch(config)#event-handler foo
switch(config-handler-foo)#trigger on-maintenance enter unit unit-foo all
switch(config-handler-foo)#action bash /mnt/flash/mm-event-handler-script
switch(config-handler-foo)#timeout 20
switch(config-handler-foo)#exit
switch(config)#
1. Send the SIGUSR1 signal to the script.
2. Wait for a GRACE-PERIOD of 10 seconds for the script to exit.
3. If the script does not exit even after that GRACE-PERIOD, then send a SIGKILL to the script.
4. The maintenance operation progresses to the next stage.
GRACE-PERIOD is not configurable.
switch(config)#event-handler bar
switch(config-handler-bar)#trigger on-maintenance exit unit unit-foo before
stage ratemon
switch(config-handler-bar)#action bash /mnt/flash/mm-event-handler-script
switch(config-handler-bar)#exit
switch(config)#
Configuring Groups
Enter the maintenance mode configuration options for groups with the maintenance and group bgp commands.
Example for group interface IG1
switch(config)#group interface IG1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Ethernet1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Port-Channel1,20
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#interface Vlan1-20
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#exit
switch(config)#
Example for group bgp BG1
switch(config)#group bgp BG1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#neighbor 10.0.0.1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#neighbor BGP_PG1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#vrf vrf1
switch(config-group-bgp-BG1)#exit
switch(config)#
Configuring Profiles
Enter the maintenance mode configuration options for profiles with the profile interface, rate-monitoring threshold, profile bgp, and profile unit <profile_name> commands.
These command examples assign a user configured profile as the default profile.
Example for profile interface IP1
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#profile interface IP1
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#rate-monitoring load-interval 10
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#rate-monitoring threshold 100
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#shutdown max-delay 100
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#profile interface IP1 default
switch(config-profile-intf-IP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
Example for profile bgp BP1
switch(config-maintenance)#profile bgp BP1
switch(config-profile-bgp-BP1)#initiator route-map rmap inout
switch(config-profile-bgp-BP1)#profile bgp BP1 default
switch(config-profile-bgp-BP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
Example for profile unit UP1
switch(config-maintenance)#profile unit UP1
switch(config-profile-unit-UP1)#on-boot duration 300
switch(config-profile-unit-UP1)#profile unit UP1 default
switch(config-profile-unit-UP1)#exit
switch(config-maintenance)#
Associating Profiles with Groups
Enter the maintenance mode configuration options for associating profiles with groups using the maintenance and group bgp command.
Example
switch(config)#group interface IG1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#maintenance profile bgp BP1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#maintenance profile interface IP1
switch(config-group-if-IG1)#
Configuring Units
Enter the maintenance mode configuration options for units using the unit, group bgp, and maintenance commands.
Example
switch(config)#maintenance
switch(config-maintenance)#unit foo
switch(config-unit-foo)#group bgp BG1
switch(config-unit-foo)#group interface IG1
switch(config-unit-foo)#profile unit UP1
