Question 1 of 50


On EOS 4.13.1F, which of the following statements are true in regards to Arista’s Tap Aggregation feature? (Select two)

    Correct Answer: BC

    In Arista’s Tap Aggregation feature, tap ports are configured to receive traffic only, meaning they are receive only, while tool ports are designed to send traffic only, primarily to monitoring tools. Therefore, the correct statements are that tap ports are receive only and tool ports are send only.

Question 2 of 50


Which of the following Arista switch series’ supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP)?

    Correct Answer: A

    The 7050 series supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP). ZTP is a feature that is generally supported on many Arista switch series, and the 7050 series is one of them. This is a common feature in Arista's switch lines, enabling automated initial device configuration. While all the mentioned series may support ZTP, when asked to identify a specific series, the 7050 is a widely recognized and compatible option for this functionality.

Question 3 of 50


On an Arista switch, which port is used to connect a laptop to the switch for initial configuration or password recovery?

    Correct Answer: B

    The console port is used to connect a laptop to an Arista switch for initial configuration or password recovery. This connection is essential for accessing the switch's command-line interface (CLI) before any network configuration has been set up, making it distinct from regular Ethernet or Management ports.

Question 4 of 50


On what interface(s) will ZTP send out requests?

    Correct Answer: D

    Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) typically sends out requests on all connected interfaces in order to discover the network settings, download the necessary configuration files, and provision the device automatically. This approach ensures that ZTP can leverage any connected interface to obtain the required information for provisioning.

Question 5 of 50


Arista MLAG uses which of the following protocols for inter-switch communication?

    Correct Answer: D

    Arista Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG) does not use protocols like BGP, IEEE 1588, or STP for inter-switch communication. Instead, the MLAG peers communicate over a dedicated peer link which is not directly associated with these protocols. Therefore, the correct answer is 'None of the above'.
