Test Drive Arista Like a Pro (Without the Sales Pitch)
If you’ve been looking to sharpen your network architecture skills and get hands-on with one of the most powerful platforms in the industry, the Arista Test Drive is your ticket in.
Freeit is partnering with Arista Networks to host a series of in-person, highly technical sessions this August in Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, and McAllen. Whether you’re new to Arista or just looking to get a deeper understanding of EOS and CloudVision, this event is designed to help you level up your data center networking game.
What to Expect at the Arista Test Drive
Led by Arista engineers, this is not your typical lunch-and-learn. The Arista Test Drive is a deep dive into the tech, with a clear focus on hands-on labs and real-world use cases. Here’s what the day looks like:
- Introduction to Arista switching and basic configurations
- Walkthroughs of high-level EOS and CloudVision differentiators
- Lab time to get your hands dirty with the hardware and software
- Opportunities to ask technical questions and explore campus networking, too
- Optional office hours with Arista staff for one-on-one guidance
And the best part? You’ll get up to seven days of lab access after the event so you can dig deeper at your own pace—and even request extra help from Arista engineers if you want to keep going.
Why It’s Worth Your Time
The Arista Test Drive isn’t just about learning—it’s about doing. It’s a rare chance to:
- See what makes EOS and CloudVision stand out in real time
- Understand Arista’s approach to automation and telemetry
- Build and test configurations in a lab environment
- Engage with experts and peers in your region
This is a no-fluff, highly technical event. Perfect for data center engineers, architects, and sysadmins who want to get hands-on experience and walk away with real-world skills.
