Advanced Event Management (AEM)
Simplifying the overall operations, AEM provides the tools to customize alerts and actions. AEM is a powerful and flexible set of tools to automate tasks and customize the behavior of EOS and the operation of the overall data center switching infrastructure.
AEM allows operators to fully utilize the intelligence within EOS to respond to real-time events, automate routine tasks, and automate actions based on changing network conditions.
 

Enhanced features for high-performance networks
The Arista 7050QX delivers a suite of advanced traffic control and monitoring features to improve the agility of modern high-performance environments, with solutions for data monitoring and next-generation virtualization.
 

Precise data analysis
Arista Latency Analyzer (LANZ) is an integrated feature of EOS. LANZ provides precise real-time monitoring of micro-burst and congestion events before they impact applications, with the ability to identify the sources and capture affected traffic for analysis.
 

Virtualization
Supporting next-generation virtualized data centers requires tight integration with orchestration tools and emerging encapsulation technologies such as VXLAN.
The 7050QX builds on the valuable tools already provided by the Arista VM Tracer suite to integrate directly into encapsulated environments.
Offering a wire-speed gateway between VXLAN and traditional L2/L3 environments, the 7050QX makes integration of non-VXLAN aware devices-including servers, firewalls, and load-balancers-seamless and provides the ability to leverage VXLAN as a standards-based L2 extension technology for non-MPLS environments.
 

Unified forwarding table
Cloud network scalability is directly impacted by the size of a switch’s forwarding tables. In many systems, a one-size-fits-all approach is adopted using discrete fixed-size tables for each of the common types of forwarding entry.
The Arista 7050QX leverages a common unified forwarding table for the L2 MAC, L3 routing, L3 host and IP multicast forwarding entries, which can be partitioned per entry type.
The ideal size of each partition varies depending on the network deployment scenario. The flexibility of the UFT, coupled with the range of predefined configuration profiles available on the 7050QX, ensures optimal resource allocation for all network topologies and network virtualization technologies.
