Why Check Arista EOL and EOSL Dates Regularly?
Tracking lifecycle milestones helps you maintain security, continuity, and predictable budgets across your Arista infrastructure.
Security risks & patch coverage
Unsupported devices stop receiving firmware, bug fixes, and security updates. Regularly reviewing EOL/EOSL dates helps you retire or replace high-risk hardware before it becomes a security gap.
Maintenance & replacement planning
Knowing lifecycle milestones in advance lets you schedule hardware refresh without downtime, evaluate successor models, and coordinate maintenance windows with your operations team.
Budget & upgrade strategy
Align refresh cycles with finance plans instead of reacting to sudden failures. A clear EOL/EOSL roadmap helps you spread investments over time and avoid last-minute, unplanned replacement costs.
Arista End-of-Life (EOL) & End-of-Service (EOS) Policy Overview
Layer23-Switch.com provides this summary based on the official End of Life (EOL) policy published by Arista . The goal is to help users clearly understand lifecycle milestones, support timelines, and the transition process as products move toward EOL and End of Service Life (EOSL).

| Last Ship Date | The final date that Arista ships the product to customers. Any pending orders must be fulfilled by this date. | ~12 Months after EOL Announcement |
| End of SW Maintenance | The last date Arista releases software maintenance updates or patches (excluding critical security fixes). | ~24 Months after EOL Announcement |
| End of Service Contract Renewal | The final date customers can renew support or service contracts for the product. | ~36 Months after EOL Announcement |

Why Arista EOL Policy Matters
Arista ’s structured EOL process ensures long-term product stability and predictable lifecycle transitions. Customers can continue to receive support and software updates for years after the product’s end-of-sale date.
Planning for Replacement
To avoid service interruptions, review official EOL bulletins and migrate to newer models well before the EOSL date.
