Security
Arista Networks manufacturers high-density, OpenFlow-based fixed and modular 10/40/100 Gbps Ethernet switching solutions for large data center and computing environments. Designed around the company’s Extensible Operating System (EOS), the switches use software-defined cloud networking (SDN) to optimize application performance, and the end user experience, in demanding applications.

Arista and Aruba
Arista and Aruba have collaborated to ensure interoperability between Aruba’s wired and wireless edge access networks, and Arista’s 10/40 Gbps aggregation and backbone switches. Additionally, the integrated solution provides tailored SDN switching/routing flows with peer-to-peer BYOD endpoints. For example, by tunneling OpenFlow set-up services between an Aruba Mobility Controller running AirGroup and an Arista SDN switch, Apple Bonjour requests can automatically be directed to the closest AppleTV without manual intervention or high wireless bandwidth consumption typical of Bonjour messaging. The result is a terrific end user experience.
