Flexion excessive peut endommager les câbles d'interface, en particulier les câbles optiques. Note: You must ensure that any open slots for modules, supervisors, linecards, etc. are covered by the appropriate “blank” plates. Check with your local Arista Networks representative if you have questions.
Chapter 5 Configuring the Modular Switch Arista switches ship from the factory in Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) mode. ZTP configures the switch without user intervention by downloading a startup configuration file or a boot script from a location specified by a DHCP server. To manually configure a switch, ZTP is bypassed. The initial configuration provides one username (admin) accessible only through the console port because it has no password.
