SCP on Arista Switches

June 29, 2022

It’s the year 2022 so can we collectively agree to stop using insecure protocols like FTP and TFTP to transfer files to and from your network devices? One of the many advantages of Arista switches is that you can use Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) which is an encrypted protocol to move files to and from them and also use the switch itself as an SCP source or destination. Years ago if you were remote and performed a firmware update to a network device you’d have to set up an FTP or TFTP server and then deal with the headaches when doing active vs. passive FTP if going through a firewall etc. With SCP it runs over port 22 (same as SSH) so in theory if you can SSH to the device you should also be able to SCP to it.

Remote Packet Capture over SSH on Arista EOS

March 7, 2023

Packet Captures or PCAPs are often necessary for network engineers to get to the root cause of issues in a network. As an esteemed friend and talented network engineering friend likes to say, “PCAP or it didn’t happen.” That said, getting a packet capture can be fraught with issues. How do you get mirrored packets for capture to a laptop or other computer that can review them onsite? Can you easily get a remote desktop session going to it? What if that host goes to sleep or goes offline for some reason? Is there a user that has the technical capability at the location in question to set up a capture?

Connectivity Transformation

Much how "Digital Transformation" is the integration of digital technology into all areas of a business and adopting next gen services like public cloud, "Connectivity Transformation" is the resulting changes in how users and networks evolve to adapt to their own "Digital Transformation" efforts.

Network Automation

Network automation uses programmable logic to manage network resources (routers, switches, firewalls, etc) and services (network security, load balancing, etc). Network automation allows network operations teams to configure, scale, protect, and integrate network infrastructure and application services more quickly than when performed manually by users.
