Example diff:

+hostname R1                        // "+" - what's in the running-config

Example copying to Arista switch using an SCP:

scp EOS-4.21.5F.swi admin@192.168.160.102://mnt/flash/EOS-4.21.5F.swi

localhost(config)#boot system flash:EOS-4.32.3M.swi
localhost(config)#exit
localhost#
localhost#show boot-config
Software image: flash:/EOS-4.32.3M.swi

/mnt/flash/.boot-image.swi
Aboot# boot /mnt/flash/.boot-image.swi

To delete an address from the port security MAC cache, the address must be removed from the forwarding database prior to executing the “clear port-security” command:

Arista# no mac address-table static 0000.aaaa.bbbb vlan 52 interface ethernet 4/1/1
Arista# clear port-security interface Ethernet 4/1/1

#dir extension:  // folder where you need to put an extension
#extension WORD  // installing an extension
#show extensions // show installed extensions
#copy installed-extensions boot-extensions // make it permanent

• Only control plane!
• But, we can redirect some data plane traffic to the CPU :)

monitor session 1 source Ethernet1/1
monitor session 1 destination Cpu

default interface ethernet 1-$

Arista(config)#username <user> privilege 15 secret <secret password>     # Create account
Arista(config)#username <user> sshkey file flash:testkey.pub             # Associate the SSH key

Generate certificate and upload it on the switch:

$ ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 521 -f aristakey
$ scp aristakey.pub admin@leaf-ams://mnt/flash/aristakey.pub

Verify connectivity:

ssh -i aristakey Arista
