DMF Controller Nodes
This chapter describes the DMF Controller Nodes available from Arista Networks.
DMF Controller Node (DCA-DM-CDL) Specification
This section describes the LEDs provided for monitoring environmental and port status on the DMF Controller Node (DCA-DM-CDL).
The DMF Controller Node (DCA-DM-CDL) is available as an enterprise-class, 2-socket, 1-RU rack-mounted hardware appliance designed to deliver the right combination of performance, redundancy, and value in a high-density chassis.
