Arista Networks

Our relationship with Arista's wireless technology dates back to 2009, when the company was still known as AirTight Networks. At the time, AirTight pioneered the Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) market with a unique overlay architecture that provided continuous wireless threat detection and protection without requiring changes to the existing Wi-Fi infrastructure.

AirTight later evolved into Mojo Networks, expanding its capabilities with cloud-managed Wi-Fi and AI-driven wireless management. Arista recognized the strategic value of this innovative wireless platform and entered the campus networking market through the acquisition of Mojo Networks. Today, that technology forms the foundation of Arista's highly successful Cognitive Campus portfolio.

Cognitive Wi-Fi – Designed Around User Experience

Wireless connectivity has become the primary access layer for most organizations. Arista's Cognitive Wi-Fi platform is designed to ensure that users receive a consistent, high-quality experience regardless of location, device, or application.

Built on a cloud-native architecture, Arista Wi-Fi combines intelligent automation, extensive telemetry, AI-driven analytics, and integrated security to deliver exceptional performance while simplifying operations.

Key benefits include:

• Controllerless cloud-native architecture
• AI-powered optimization and troubleshooting
• Integrated Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS)
• Tri-band Multifunction radio with patented AI/ML driven App Quality of Experience engine providing auto root cause analysis and auto remediation as well as automatic packet captures
• Client-like pro-active connectivity tests for an end-to-end visibility of association, authentication, DHCP, DNS, wired and wireless speeds, wired and wireless delays and application testing to specifically show where a potential problem or bottleneck resides
• Deep visibility into users, devices, and applications
• Automated root-cause analysis
• Scalable deployments without single points of failure

What makes Arista unique is its ability to continuously validate the user experience and proactively identify issues before they impact business operations.

Enterprise Switching Powered by EOS®

Arista's switching portfolio extends the same operational philosophy that made the company a leader in the data center market.

From access-layer switches to high-performance campus cores and large-scale enterprise environments, every switch runs on the proven Arista EOS® operating system. This single software architecture provides unmatched consistency, advanced automation, simplified lifecycle management, and exceptional reliability.

Organizations benefit from:

• Unified operating system across the entire network
• Advanced automation and orchestration capabilities
• High availability and hitless upgrades
• Simplified operations and troubleshooting
• Scalable campus and enterprise architectures

The result is a network infrastructure that is easier to manage, more resilient, and ready for future growth.

CloudVision AGNI™ – Identity-Based Zero Trust Access

Modern networks require a security model that extends beyond traditional authentication.

CloudVision AGNI™ (Arista Guardian for Network Identity) delivers cloud-native Network Access Control (NAC), device profiling, policy enforcement, and Zero Trust Network Access capabilities across both wired and wireless environments.

AGNI enables organizations to:

• Automate user and device onboarding
• Enforce role-based access policies
• Secure IoT and unmanaged devices
• Integrate with leading identity providers
• Simplify certificate management and segmentation

By making identity the foundation of network access, AGNI helps organizations improve security while reducing operational complexity.

Network Detection & Response (NDR)

Cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, making network visibility more important than ever.

Arista's Network Detection and Response (NDR) capabilities provide continuous monitoring of network traffic to identify suspicious behavior, anomalies, and potential security incidents in real time.

Leveraging machine learning and advanced behavioral analytics, NDR helps security teams detect threats earlier, investigate incidents faster, and strengthen their overall security posture without deploying additional complex security infrastructure.

One Platform for Networking, Wireless and Security

What truly differentiates Arista is the integration of networking, wireless, security, and operations into a single management framework.

Through CloudVision®, organizations gain end-to-end visibility across users, devices, applications, switches, access points, and security policies. AI-powered analytics transform operational data into actionable insights, enabling IT teams to become more proactive and efficient.

Whether supporting enterprise campuses, healthcare environments, educational institutions, manufacturing facilities, or multi-site organizations, Arista delivers a modern networking platform designed around performance, security, and simplicity.

From its pioneering roots as AirTight Networks to its position today as a Gartner-recognized leader, Arista continues to redefine what organizations should expect from enterprise networking.
