EOS Licensing

Arista 7388X5 Series with EOS and CloudVision, is designed to provide exibility both in the choice of the appropriate feature

functionality and in the software consumption model. The base feature set of Arista EOS comes bundled with the Arista products and

systems. A set of feature licenses are available to enable additional functionality in advanced feature sets. The traditional licensing

procurement model employs a perpetual term for the right to use the feature, set at a xed price. For Arista CloudVision the

functionality is available as a monthly subscription, for an agreed upon term.

Routing: General Routing functionality (BGP, OSPF, Multicast, etc) is available in the EOS Enhanced (E) license. The EOS Flex-route (FLX)

Lite license expands that to include key features like BGP-EVPN for VXLAN.

Automation/Visibility: CloudVision is the most complete o ering for advanced automation and visibility. Arista also o ers subsets of

CloudVision Lite, for entry-level GUI functionality. CloudVision is o ered as an on-premises appliance (virtual or physical appliance) or as

a SaaS-based software application that is fully managed by Arista. The EOS V2 license includes capability to run custom extensions

natively or via containers in EOS. In addition, the V2 license gives customers an option of integrating with Arista’s best of breed

ecosystem for security, analytics, visibility, and other use-cases.

AI Analyzer *

Traditional software-based tra c counters do not lend themselves to examine AI/ML tra c patterns, which exhibit unique ramp up

behavior in very short intervals of time. The AI Analyzer is a hardware capability that enables the collection of ECMP member utilization

data, aggregated over extremely short periods of time. This allows the Arista 7358X4 series to e ectively analyze the tra c patterns,

with a time interval as granular as 100 microseconds. The results of such an analysis can then be applied to ne tune dynamic load

balancing workloads uniformly across the ECMP member links, which is a key requirement for AI/ML applications.
