switch(config-s-sess-1)#The domain command configures the switch's XMPP domain name. The XMPP client accepts messages only when using a locally configured domain. It uses the switch's domain name if none is specified.
Management over XMPP is disabled by default. To enable it, you must provide the server's location, domain, username, and password for the switch.
Arista recommends configuring the XMPP domain before the username, because it provides shortcuts for the switch-group and username so you can configure it without the domain attached to it, for example, USERNAME, instead of USERNAME@DOMAIN.
The no domain and default domain commands delete the domain name by removing the domain command from running-config.

switch#This chapter describes administrative tasks that are typically performed only after initially configuring the switch or after recovery procedures.

switch#The Domain Name Server (DNS) maps FQDN labels to IP addresses and provides addresses for network devices. Each network requires at least one server to resolve addresses. The configuration file can list a maximum of three server addresses.
To add name servers to the configuration, use the ip name-server command. Each command can add multiple servers. All server addresses support multiple VRFs, and a priority may be specified for each server named. If all name servers have the default priority (0), the default DNSmasq behavior is followed for the configuration. It queries all name servers simultaneously and forwards the requests to the first name server for 50 queries or 20 seconds, whichever expires sooner for answering. If any priorities are non-zero, queries are issued in order with a five second timeout between unresponsive name servers.

The switch uses the system clock to display the time and time-stamping messages. Set the system clock to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC); the switch calculates local time based on the time zone setting. Time-stamps and time displays are in local time. The system clock can be set manually or via Network Time Protocol (NTP); any NTP servers properly configured on the switch override time manually entered.
The following sections deal with the configuration of the system clock and the use of NTP and PTP.
Select the switch's time zone to convert the system time (UTC) to local time. To specify the time zone, use the clock timezone command.
switch(config)# clock timezone US/Central
switch(config)#show clock

switch(config)# show clock
Mon Jan 14 16:32:46 2013
timezone is America/Los_AngelesEOS enables Network Time Protocol (NTP) on the switch by default, and time settings from any properly configured NTP server override manual setting of the system clock.
NTP servers synchronize time settings of systems running an NTP client. The switch supports NTP versions 1 through 4, and uses version 4 by default. After configuring the switch to synchronize with an NTP server, it may take up to ten minutes for the switch to set the clock. Select the configured running-config lists of the NTP servers that the switch uses.
The ntp server command adds a server to the list or modifies the parameters of a previously listed address. When the system contains multiple NTP servers, the prefer keyword can be used to specify a preferred NTP server and uses it as the NTP server.
Note that all NTP servers must be in the same VRF and added in the default VRF if you do notspecify a VRF.
NTP sets the system clock if enabled, and if the switch has one properly configured NTP server.NTP overrides the manual setting of the system clock. EOS enables NTP by default. To disable NTP, select the no ntp command.
Use the following commands to add three NTP servers and designate the second server as the preferred NTP server.
switch(config)# ntp server local-NTP
switch(config)#ntp server 172.16.0.23 Prefer
switch(config)#ntp server 172.16.0.25A local interface can be specified as the source in outgoing NTP packets using the ntp local-interface command to control the address to send NTP responses to the switch. The IP address of that interface uses the source address in all outgoing NTP packets unless the switch acts as an NTP server and a server-specific source configured using the source option of the ntp server command.
switch(config)# ntp local-interface vlan 25
switch(config)#To configure the switch to accept NTP requests on all interfaces, use the ntp serve all command to enable NTP server mode globally on the switch. To configure an individual interface to accept or deny NTP requests, use the ntp serve command. Interface level settings override the global settings, and changing the settings at either the global or interface level also causes the switch to re-synchronize with its upstream NTP server. Disable the NTP server mode by default.
switch(config)# ntp serve all
switch(config)#switch(config)# interface ethernet 5
switch(config-if-Et5)#ntp serve
switch(config-if-Et5)#The switch can be configured to accept NTP packets only from an authenticated server or client. Disable the NTP authentication by default.
To configure the switch to authenticate NTP packets, create one or more authentication keys using the ntp authentication-key command, specify which keys are trusted by using the ntp trusted-key command, use the ntp authenticate command to enable NTP authentication, and specify to use the trusted-key for a specific server. The NTP server must be configured to select the same authentication key and key ID number.
Note: Enable when NTP authentication on a switch; all NTP servers upstream of the switch and all NTP clients of the switch should have matching keys configured, and clients must have NTP authentication enabled.
These commands configure the switch to authenticate NTP packets using key 328 with the plaintext password timeSync.
switch(config)# ntp authentication-key 328 md5 timeSync
switch(config)#ntp trusted key 328
switch(config)#ntp authenticate
switch(config)#To display the status of Network Time Protocol (NTP) on the switch, use the show ntp status command. To display the status of connections to NTP servers, use the show ntp associations command.
Note: In the output for show ntp associations, the reference ID (which identifies the time source of the NTP server) is either the IPv4 address of the time source or, if that source has an IPv6 address, the first four octets of the MD5 hash of that IPv6 address. In EOS releases prior to 4.23.2, the show ntp status command identified the system peer by its reference ID as described above. Still, in later releases, it shows the IP address (whether IPv4 or IPv6).

By default, EOS logs the event notifications internally to the folder, /var/log/messages but can also be displayed on the console or logged to an external server. Configure severity levels and log message destinations using the CLI, and configure individual processes and protocols to adjust or limit the messages from them. Use the show logging command to view details of the current logging configuration.
For a full list of Syslog messages, visit the Arista website.
Strata chipsets, present in the 7010, 7050X, 7060X, 7250X, 7260X, and 7300X series switches, provide event logging for the hardware capacity of TCAM tables on a per-slice basis, and trigger a capacity warning by default whenever any TCAM slice exceeds 90% capacity. As a result, default TCAM logging can generate high levels of syslog messages on these platforms. The hardware capacity alert table command can adjust the capacity levels for the warnings above the 90% default. In that case, this adjustment can be made per TCAM resource and per slice. The command can also disable TCAM hardware capacity messages at the level Warning and below for a given slice. To disable messages, set the threshold to 0 or use the no version of the command.
switch(config)# hardware capacity alert table EFP feature Slice-2 threshold 99switch(config)# hardware capacity alert table IFP feature Slice-5 threshold 0switch(config)# no hardware capacity alert table VFPHardware capacity messages are user-configurable only at or below the “Warning” level. When depleting TCAM management software, it always sends “Error” messages to Syslog and affected features when all TCAM resources are used.
A hash collision occurs when two or more distinct pieces of data map to the same entry or slot in the hardware table. It can happen when the hash function used to calculate the index for a MAC address results in the already occupied index and causes a failure of inserting the later MAC address to the hardware table.
Use the following commands to enable system logging of MAC Learn Failures on the switch:
switch(config)# platform trident hardware mac-address-table collision-trackingUse the no version of the command to disable the feature:

The Event Monitor writes system event records to local files for access by SQLite database commands.
The event monitor receives notifications for important events or changes to the enabled event monitor tables. These changes are logged to a fixed-size circular buffer. The size of this buffer is configurable, but it does not grow dynamically. Buffer contents can be stored to permanent files to increase the event monitor effective capacity. The permanent file size and the number of permanent files is configurable. The buffer is stored at a fixed location on the switch.
Specific event monitor queries are available through CLI commands. For queries not available through specific commands, manual queries are supported through other CLI commands. When the user issues a query command, the relevant events from the circular buffer and permanent files are written to and accessed from a temporary SQLite database file. The database keeps a separate table for each logging type (such as MAC, ARP, route, and others). When the monitor receives notification of a new event, the database file is deleted, then recreated.
The switch does not enable event-monitor by default. Use the event-monitor command to explicitly enable the Event Monitor. The no event-monitor all disables the Event Monitor. The no event-monitor command, followed by a log type parameter, disables event recording for the specified type.
switch(config)# no event-monitor allswitch(config)# event-monitor routeThe event-monitor clear command removes the contents of the Event Monitor buffer. If enabled, this command removes the contents from all Event Monitor backup files.
switch# event-monitor clear
switch(config)#The event-monitor buffer max-size command specifies the size of the Event Monitor buffer. The Event Monitor buffer has a fixed-size circular data structure that receives event records from the Event Monitor. When enabling Event Monitor backup, the buffer copies the events to a backup file before each rollover. Buffer size ranges from 6 Kb to 50 Kb with a default size of 32 Kb.
switch(config)# event-monitor buffer max-size 48
switch(config)#The event-monitor backup path command enables storage of the Event Monitor buffer to permanent switch files and specifies the path and name of these files. The command references file location either from the flash drive root directory where the CLI operates (/mnt/flash) or from the switch root directory (/).
The Event Monitor buffer becomes circular after the buffer fills, new data replaces older data at the beginning of the buffer. The switch copies the buffer into a new backup file after each buffer writing cycle before the switch starts re-writing the buffer.
switch(config)# event-monitor backup path eventmon_backup_dir/event.log

stpunstableevent.log.1The event-monitor backup max-size command specifies the quantity of Event Monitor backup files the switch maintains. The switch appends an extension number to the file name when it creates a new file. After every 500 events, the switch deletes the oldest backup file after exceeding the file limit.
switch(config)# event-monitor backup path sw-event.log
switch(config)# event-monitor backup max-size 4

The switch deletes sw-event.log.0 the first time it verifies the number of existing backup files after the creation of sw-event.log.4.
The event-monitor backup path command enables the storage of the event monitor buffer to switch files and specifies the path/name of these files. The command references the file location either from the flash drive root directory (/mnt/flash) where the CLI operates or from the switch root directory (/).
The event monitor buffer is circular after the buffer is filled, new data is written to the beginning of the buffer, replacing old data. At the conclusion of each buffer writing cycle, it is copied into a new backup file before the switch starts re-writing the buffer. The switch appends a extension number to the file name when it creates a new file. After every 500 events, the switch deletes the oldest backup file if the file limit specified by the event-monitor backup max-size command is exceeded.
running-config can contain a maximum of one event-monitor backup path statement. Subsequent event-monitor backup path commands replace the existing statement in running-config, changing the name of the file where event monitor backup files are stored.

Command Syntax
logging format {hostname{fqdn|ipv4}|rfc5424|sequence-numbers|timestamp{high-resolution|traditional[timezone][year]}}
no logging format {hostname|rfc5424|sequence-numbers|timestamp}
default logging format {hostname|rfc5424|sequence-numbers|timestamp}
Parameters
hostname {fqdn\ipv4} specifies the formatting for the hostname in syslog messages as either fqdn (fully qualified domain name) or ipvr (IPv4 address).
rfc5424 causes syslogs generated locally to include high-resolution timestamps, and syslogs forwarded to remote servers to be sent in RFC5424 format.
sequence-numbers causes the sequence numbers of syslog messages to be visible when the messages are displayed.
timestamp {high-resolution|traditional[timezone][year]} specifies the formatting for syslog timestamps as either high-resolution (high-resolution RFC3339 timestamps) or traditional (traditional syslog timestamps as specified in RFC3164).When using the traditional timestamp format, timezone and year can also be included.

switch(config)#The ntp authenticate command enables the authentication of incoming NTP packets. When authentication is enabled, NTP packets will be used to synchronize time on the switch only if they include a trusted authentication key. Authentication keys are created on the switch using the ntp authentication-key command, and the ntp trusted-key command is used to specify which keys are trusted. NTP authentication is disabled by default.
The no ntp authenticate and default ntp authenticate commands disable NTP authentication on the switch by removing the corresponding ntp authenticate command from running-config.

switch(config)# no ntp authentication-key 234The ntp local-interface command configures an interface as the local NTP source. The IP address of that interface will then be used as the source address in NTP packets sent by the switch. If the switch is acting as an NTP server and a server-specific source interface has been configured using the source option of the ntp server command, the server-specific source address will take precedence.
The no ntp local-interface and default ntp local-interface commands remove the ntp local-interface command from running-config.

switch(config-if-Et5)#The ntp server command adds a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to the running-config. If the command specifies an existing server in the running-config, it modifies the server settings. The switch synchronizes the system clock with an NTP server when running-config contains at least one valid NTP server.
The switch supports NTP versions 1 through 4. The default is version 4.
The prefer option specifies a preferred NTP server to use as the NTP server if not discarded by NTP.
The no ntp server and default ntp server commands remove the specified NTP server from running-config. To remove an NTP server configured in a user-defined VRF, include the VRF name in the no ntp server command.
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Syntax
ntp server [ vrfvrf_instance | host_name] refresh [version ntp_version] [source-address [ [ipv4_address | ipv6_address] burst [iburst [ key auth_key ][ maxpoll max_poll_interval][] [ minpoll min_poll_interval ] prefer source interface_name
no ntp server [vrf_instance] host_name
default ntp server [vrf_instance] host_name
All parameters except vrf and hostname can be placed in any order.
Guidelines
To configure multiple parameters for a single server, include them all in a single ntp server command. Using the command again for the same server overwrites parameters previously configured in running-config.
All NTP servers must use the same VRF. If you do not specify a VRF, the server uses the default VRF. To use a user-defined VRF for connection to an NTP server, first use the no ntp server command to remove any NTP servers configured in the default VRF.
When specifying a source interface, choose an interface in the same VRF as the server. If the source interface does not exists on the same VRF, the running-config includes the source data but does not add it to the NTP packets.
An NTP server may be configured using an invalid or inactive VRF, but the status of the NTP server remains inactive until the VRF becomes active.
