FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the M-S model and standard 96ZC2?
A: The M-S designation indicates expanded memory (DRAM), enabling enhanced Layer 3 routing tables, increased MAC address capacity, and support for more sophisticated campus features like EVPN and large-scale VXLAN deployments compared to the standard 4GB models.

Q: What is the total PoE budget for this switch?
A: With dual 1050W power supplies and platinum efficiency, the CCS-720XP-96ZC2-M-S-2F provides substantial PoE budget for the 16 PoE+ ports. The exact available PoE wattage depends on system overhead, but typically exceeds 960W for connected devices when fully redundant.

Q: Does this switch support stacking or clustering?
A: The 720XP series does not use traditional stacking. Instead, it leverages CloudVision for centralized management and can participate in EVPN-VXLAN fabrics for scalable campus architectures with distributed control plane and centralized orchestration.

Q: What licensing is required for this switch?
A: Arista 720XP switches require software licenses for advanced features. FLX-Lite licenses enable full routing up to 32K routes with EVPN and VXLAN, while FLX licenses support 32K-200K routes with OSPF, ISIS, and BGP. Base features are included with hardware.

Q: Is this switch compatible with multi-vendor campus networks?
A: Yes, the CCS-720XP supports industry-standard protocols including 802.1X authentication, RADIUS, LLDP, spanning tree variants, and standards-based routing. It integrates with third-party wireless controllers, authentication servers, and management platforms.
