Supported Hypervisors for the DMF Controller
The software for the DMF Controller Node is supported on an appliance as well as a VM for the hypervisor versions listed in the following table:

Supported Hypervisors Version
Linux KVM Ubuntu 16.04

Ubuntu 18.04

Ubuntu 20.04

VMware ESXi| Version 6.5.0

Version 6.7.0

Version 7.0.0

Note: No other hypervisor types or versions have been tested or will be supported by Arista Networks.

Hardware Requirements for DMF Controller VM Deployment
VM performance depends on many other factors, so the DMF Controller Node hardware appliance is recommended for production deployments.
The following is the minimum hardware required for installing the VM software image on a supported KVM or ESXi version:

  • 4 vCPUs with a minimum scheduling of 2 GHz.
  • 32 GB of virtual memory.
  • 400 GB hard disk.
  • 1 virtual network interface reachable from the physical switches.

Note: No other hypervisor types or versions have been tested or will be supported by Arista Networks in the current DMF release.
