CloudVision Portal 2024.3.0 TOI

This studio enables you to quickly configure access interfaces towards endpoint devices in your campus network. This configuration relates to the devices in Access Pods deployed using the Campus Fabric (L2/L3/EVPN) Studio.

Use the Authentication Studio to configure RADIUS servers for user authentication and 802.1X authentication and accounting. The 802.1X authentication protocol is a port-based network access control that provides an extra layer of security for both wired and wireless networks.  

The Campus Fabric studio allows you to set up and configure a complete campus network using Arista’s validated designs. By leveraging zero touch provisioning (ZTP), you can seamlessly onboard EOS devices, define their roles and connections within the fabric, and configure L2 and L3 services across the fabric. 

Deployments utilizing VXLAN, a routing underlay (OSPF or eBGP), and a routing overlay (eBGP) are supported, and you can also define connections to non-EOS devices in the fabric. Additionally, PTP, 802.1X, IP locking, and other network features are supported by the studio.

The Campus Health Dashboard provides an overview of your network state. Devices stream telemetry data to CloudVision in real-time, giving you immediate and up-to-date insights into your network’s health. The timepicker can be used to view historic data of the network state.

CloudVision allows you to generate event notifications so that you can stay up to date on your network's status and performance. Notification configuration involves formatting notifications, configuring notification platforms, assigning notification receivers, and configuring notification rules.

CloudVision will generate a Disk Utilization on CloudVision Node Breached Threshold event when disk utilization for a CloudVision node has either exceeded the default threshold or breached the user-configured threshold set in event rules.

The Interface Diagnostics quick action provides you with a fast and efficient way to run interface cycles and cable diagnostics on your campus devices from the Campus Health Overview Dashboard. The devices available are those with a Campus tag, which is automatically assigned to devices configured with the Campus Fabric Studio (L2/L3/EVPN).

You can use the Access Interface Configuration quick action to assign configuration profiles to devices. The guided workflow will display an illustration of device front panels, which you can use to select interfaces from.

The Management Connectivity Studio is used to configure out-of-band (OOB) management interfaces. You’ll create a profile of configured attributes for management interfaces, which can be assigned to multiple devices at once using tags.

CloudVision provides support for microperimeter segmentation and enforcement as part of Arista’s Multi-Domain Segmentation Service (MSS) for Zero Trust Networking (ZTN).

ZTN works to reduce lateral movement into increasingly smaller areas where workloads are granularly identified and only approved connections are permitted.

View PTP counters to identify the types of messages being sent and received by PTP-enabled devices. Use this to troubleshoot issues with your network PTP configuration and connectivity. When announce and sync messages are present but delay request messages are missing, for instance, it may suggest that a host is having trouble locking to the boundary clock.

 The Software Management Studio is used to manage EOS images and extensions and assign them to devices. You’ll use the studio’s Software Repository to upload EOS images, Streaming Agents, and extensions. You’ll then create or edit a workspace in Studios to assign software from the Software Repository to devices.
