Core switches (Arista 7148SX)
The 7100 series from Arista switches are different from all others. A few hints:
- The serial port setting is 9600 8N1 with NO flow control
- The local user is admin
- It is not possible to configure the management part of this switch over the 10Gb fiber optics, you need to use the special RJ45 ports on the switch for this
- It is a AMD dualcore 3600+ machine running a redhat based linux version
- You can use tcpdump to debug your network interfaces
- With the EOS 4.2.2 version the static routing isn't working properly
Basic Configuration
To configure the switch with a hostname, ip, password.
enable configure terminal interface management 1 ip address <ip> <netmask> ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 <gateway> hostname <name of switch> username admin secret 0 <password> end copy running-config startup-config
Update OS
To update the system:
enable copy http://webserver/EOS-4.2.2.swi flash:EOS-4.2.2.swi configure terminal boot system flash:EOS-4.2.2.swi write memory reload
And now the arista switch is running EOS-4.2.2
SNMP Activation
To Activate SNMP on the switch for monitoring usage. This isn't active by default.
enable configure terminal snmp-server community public ro
Create Vlan
To create a vlan with a IP address and hook it up to a ethernet interface.
enable configure terminal vlan 2 interface vlan 2 ip address 10.x.y.z/24 interface ethernet 1 switchport access vlan 2
Create a Trunk
To create a trunk with tagged or untagged vlan's.
enable configure terminal int port-Channel 1 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk allowed vlan 4,9
Or if you want a untagged trunk.
enable configure terminal int port-Channel 1 switchport access vlan 20
To add interfaces to this trunk:
interface ethernet <begin port number>-<end port number> channelgroup 1 mode active
Level 3 Routing
Todo some static routing with this switch.
enable configure terminal ip routing ip route <network> <netmask> <gateway>
