Easy-mistake-check-list for Arista EOS

Here is my easy-mistake-check-list for Arista EOS
  • Incorrect hardware TCAM profile:
    • show hardware tcam profile
  • Unprogrammed routes:
    • show platform sand l3 summary | grep unprog
    • show ip/ipv6 route vrf all | egrep '^*'
    • bash top - see high cpu% for ksoftirqd 
  • Incorrect dstMac (especially for ixia traffic):
    • tcpdump packets and check dstMac
  • PIC (bgp additional-path install) not working: 
    • PIC only works for directly connected NH. (only old EOS version prior 4.24?)
    smv575-AFO-CE1.21:24:29(config)#sh ip route vrf vrf-0400 200.4.0.0/24 detail
     B E      200.4.0.0/24 [200/0] via 100.255.255.101/32, BGP LU tunnel index 15, label 116386
                                      via 100.11.101.1, Port-Channel101, =>PE1, label imp-null(3) <<<< no backup

    On the remote ASBR:
       address-family vpn-ipv4
          neighbor AFO-10B activate
          neighbor rmtPE activate
          neighbor default encapsulation mpls next-hop-self source-interface Loopback0
          neighbor default encapsulation mpls next-hop-self received-vpnv4-routes

    Remove the above line:
     B E      200.4.0.0/24 [200/0] via 100.11.101.1, Port-Channel101 (egress VRF default) =>PE1, label 116386
                                   via 10.11.12.1, Port-Channel1112 (egress VRF default) CE1<=>CE2, label 118365, backup
