CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT
(For the reporting period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016)

Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (this “Report”) of Arista Networks, Inc. (the "Company") has been prepared pursuant to Rule 13p-1 and Form SD promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (collectively, the “Rule”) for the reporting period January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016. Rule 13p-1 imposes certain reporting obligations on Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registrants whose manufactured products contain certain minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. The specified minerals, which are collectively referred to in this Report as “Conflict Minerals,” are gold, columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which the SEC has currently limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten. The “Covered Countries” for purposes of the Rule and this Report are the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC"), the Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola.
For purposes of this Report, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Arista,” “Arista Networks” or the “Company” refer to Arista Networks, Inc.
Overview
Company Overview
We are a leading supplier of cloud networking solutions that use software innovations to address the needs of large-scale Internet companies, cloud service providers and next-generation data centers for enterprise support. Our cloud networking solutions consist of our Extensible Operating System, or EOS,  a set of network applications and our 10/25/40/50/100 Gigabit Ethernet switching and routing platforms, delivering industry-leading performance, scalability, availability, programmability, automation and visibility.
The Company’s products for the reporting period covered by this Form SD include all of our hardware products.
The Company has adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy Statement ("Conflict Minerals Policy"), which is available on our website at https://www.arista.com/en/company/sustainability (see “Responsible Supply Chains”). The content of any website referred to in this Form SD is included for general information only and is not incorporated by reference in this Form SD.
Reasonable Country of Origin ("RCOI")
The manufacture of our products is 100% outsourced and we procure our components and materials from suppliers worldwide. We have determined that during calendar year 2016, our products contained tantalum, tungsten, tin and gold (“3TG”) which are necessary to the functionality or production of our hardware products. In accordance with Rule 13p-1, we conducted a good faith RCOI inquiry to determine whether the necessary conflict minerals may have originated in the Covered Countries or come from recycled or scrap sources.
We are a member of the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (“EICC”) and the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”), under Arista Technologies, Inc. code “ARIS”. As a member of the CFSI, a leading industry program that helps its members to manage risk by improving supply chain transparency with respect to Conflict Minerals, we have access to CFSI RCOI data that aids us in determining the mine or location of origin of the Conflict Minerals in our supply chain.    
The main piece of our RCOI process includes conducting an inquiry of our direct suppliers using the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) developed by the CFSI.
Design of Conflict Minerals Program
We designed our due diligence measures in conformance with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ("OECD") Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.




Due Diligence Measures Performed
The following describes the measures taken to reasonably determine the country of origin of conflict minerals and to exercise due diligence on our supply chain in conformance with the OECD Guidance.
Step 1: Establish strong company management systems
A.
We maintain a Conflict Minerals Policy, in which Arista Networks is committed to the responsible sourcing of components that contain gold, tantalum, tungsten, and tin and will comply with the underlying SEC rules and regulations surrounding “conflict minerals.”
B.
We have two teams: one is focused on ensuring that we are meeting due diligence guidelines (our “steering team”), and one team focused on data collection (our “data collection team”). The steering team meets quarterly and discusses issues relating to Conflict Minerals. The data collection team meets regularly during the data collection period to discuss status, and how to ensure full participation from our suppliers.
C.
We are members of the EICC and we expect our suppliers to abide with the EICC Code of Conduct, which includes a provision on Conflict Minerals.
D.
We expect supplier to comply to Conflict Minerals requirements.
Step 2: Identify and assess risk in the supply chain
A.
Identified Direct Suppliers:
1.
We identified suppliers through our product life cycle management system ("PLM") and focused on suppliers whose components were qualified for us in Arista products that were sold in 2016.
2.
We then completed a first pass analysis of suppliers that were in-scope and out of scope.
i.
In-scope suppliers are suppliers that provide us with parts that may contain 3TG and we purchased components/materials from supplier in calendar year 2016.
ii.
Out of scope suppliers are suppliers that provide us with parts that will not have 3TG, or we did not purchase components/materials from supplier in calendar year 2016.
B.
Conducted RCOI:
1.
We utilized a third-party data collection partner to collect data from our in-scope suppliers on our behalf.
2.
We used the industry standard CMRTs to collect data from our suppliers, and if necessary, require our suppliers to collect data from their suppliers for the necessary conflict minerals information. We evaluated the information gathered from the CMRTs submitted by our suppliers to determine our reporting obligation based on this RCOI.
3.
We received completed CMRTs from our in-scope suppliers through our data collection partner and used our suppliers’ CMRTs to identify smelters or refiners ("SORs") as well as determine material country of origin.
C.
Completed additional follow-up:
With the help of our data collection partner, we reviewed the CMRT submissions to validate for completeness and ensure consistency. Any inconsistencies were followed up to completion.
D.
Identify smelters/processors:
We cross-checked information received from our suppliers against data made available by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Program (the “CFSP”) developed by the CFSI. When necessary, we engaged with component suppliers that referenced high-risk SORs to encourage such facilities to obtain a “conflict-free” designation from an independent, third-party audit program.
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
A.
The CMRT is the main vehicle for our approach to identify risks, and our internal process documentation lists the approach towards SOR validation, and what steps to take if other risks are identified in the SOR list.
B.
At the end of each data collection process, we compare the list of SORs provided by all of our suppliers to lists provided by the CFSI, which includes the names of SORs that are compliant (and third-party verified) with the CFSP protocols.
C.
For suppliers that did not respond to our requests: We performed regular follow-ups until data was provided.
D.
Regular meetings were held with the steering team, as well as senior management to provide progress updates, request for help, and escalations.




Step 4: Audit of SOR due diligence practices
Given that we do not source Conflict Minerals directly from smelters and refiners, we rely on third parties, including the CFSI, to coordinate and conduct third-party audits of these facilities. We rely on the published results of these third-party audits to validate the responsible sourcing practices of the smelters and refiners in our supply chain.
Step 5: Report on supply chain due diligence
This report and associated form SD will be filed with the SEC and will be available at http://investors.arista.com/company/investors-relations/financial-information/sec-filings.
Results of RCOI and Due Diligence
We conducted due diligence processes on the SORs that the surveyed suppliers identified. The surveyed suppliers identified an aggregate of 300 operational SORs which may process the necessary conflict minerals contained in the components and/or materials that make up Arista products.
Smelters or Refiners    
Appendix A in this report lists all SORs provided to Arista Networks from surveyed suppliers that provided to Arista Networks products, components or materials that may contain 3TG in calendar year 2016. We have categorized SOR status as the following:
Status
Description
Compliant
Smelters that have received a “conflict-free” status from an independent third party audit program.
Active
Smelters that have started participating in an independent third party audit program
Not Active
Smelters that have not begun participating in an independent third party audit program

Based on our due diligence process, we have determined the following as the status of the smelters that were disclosed to us by our suppliers that provide us with parts and materials that we have determined to contain 3TG :
Status
Number of Smelters
% of Total
Active
14
5%
Compliant
243
80%
Not Active
45
15%
Grand Total
302
100%

We have also determined the percentages of smelters by metal that are compliant to CFSI protocols:
Metal
% CFSI Compliant Smelters
Gold
70%
Tantalum
100%
Tin
83%
Tungsten
89%

In addition, we have performed an analysis as to declarations of smelters that source from level 2 or level 3 CFSI countries. Level 2 countries are countries where 3TG from conflict-affected and high-risk areas are known to transit and level 3 countries are where 3TG material is mined in the DRC and adjoining countries.
We have determined that 5 smelters had sourced from level 2 or level 3 countries, and detailed analysis has determined that:
•
3 smelters have been in discussion with the CFSI but have not agreed to an audit yet.
•
1 smelter had ceased operations in early 2016 and a certificate of ceased operations is on file with the CFSI.
•
1 smelter is compliant to the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) Responsible Gold Guidance.





Based on this analysis and representations from our suppliers, we have concluded that we do not have sufficient information to determine whether our supply chain is “DRC conflict-free.” However, we have not identified any known instances in which our products contained 3TG minerals sourced directly or indirectly from armed groups in the conflict regions of any Covered Countries. Based on guidance from the SEC’s staff, an independent private sector audit is accordingly not required to be conducted under Rule 13p-1 and therefore has not been conducted.
Future Due Diligence Efforts
During the reporting period for the calendar year ending December 31, 2017, we will engage in the activities described in this report as defined by the OECD Due Diligence Framework. Our intent is to move to a more conflict-free supply chain, we will continue to contact SORs that have not yet received a “conflict-free” designation and request their participation in the CFSP or other independent third party audit program in order for them to obtain such a “conflict-free” designation.
