    After extensive troubleshooting effort and gathering data from other sources (upstream, partners), we've been able to narrow down the issue to one of our Cores not forwarding packets properly, causing an internal ARP flood. This issue was caused due to an Arista software bug after we converted our network to VXLAN-EVPN based.

    Our team began to rollback all the changes.
