In the South, food and music go hand in hand. They define much of what we think of as Southern culture, and they say a lot about our past, our present, and our future. Each week, Sid Evans, Editor in Chief of Southern Living, sits down with musicians, chefs, and other Southern icons to hear the stories of how they grew up, what inspires them, and why they feel connected to the region. Through honest conversations, Sid explores childhood memories, the family meals they still think about, and the intersection of food and music in their lives. Always surprising, always engaging, Biscuits & Jam is a celebration of the South—and the people who are moving it forward every day. New episodes every Tuesday.

In this episode, we dive into Arista Networks’ bold moves in the campus networking space, where they’re seeing a wave of customers migrating from legacy vendors due to lack of visibility, complex management, and poor support. Arista’s differentiators—like a tri-band multifunction radio, client simulation for network assurance, integrated WIPS, and hitless AP upgrades—are resonating with enterprises looking for more simplicity and intelligence in their networks. The team also showcased their latest on Wi-Fi 7, including live demos of enhanced MLO performance and “digital twin” style experience monitoring enabled by a multifunction radio that can simulate clients in real time. We also break down Arista’s architectural innovations in large-scale Layer 2 mobility with VESPA (Virtual ES with Path Aliasing) and MRO (MAC Rewrite Offload) . These technologies eliminate legacy challenges like unknown destination flooding and ARP storms by combining standards-based EVPN with smarter AP behavior—making it possible to scale Layer 2 mobility across massive campus environments without disrupting applications. For security-conscious organizations, Arista now offers CV AGNI on-prem , a high-scale, containerized NAC solution that keeps data 100% on-site. With innovations in user segmentation using UPSK and a future-focused view on simplified mobility, Arista is positioning itself as a serious challenger in the enterprise campus space.

In this episode, we explore how Celona is redefining enterprise cellular with its mission to deliver a full-stack, turnkey Private 5G solution . From access points and EdgeOS to their orchestration platform, Celona is targeting the emerging wireless demands of the physical AI era—where coverage, mobility, and reliability are non-negotiable. We dive into their global expansion, support for neutral host deployments with AT&T and T-Mobile, and how they’re solving enterprise cellular coverage challenges tied to workforce efficiency, public safety (E911), and customer experience. Celona is also pushing ahead with “ edgeless Private 5G ,” eliminating on-prem EdgeOS friction by moving services into the cloud—making them the only vendor doing so today.

In this episode, we unpack the latest from Cisco’s wireless portfolio as they move toward a unified platform—no longer “Cisco vs. Meraki,” but a single product line with common licensing and support. Cisco’s Wi-Fi 7 access points (CW9172, CW9176I/D1, CW9178) offer future-ready performance while supporting legacy 2.4 and 5 GHz devices. We cover client readiness, advanced Wi-Fi 7 features like multi-link operation (MLO), and new security standards (GCMP-256, WPA3-SAE). But while the controller offers unmatched configuration flexibility, it demands deep operator expertise. Design complexity increases as organizations juggle cipher compatibility, roaming reliability, and client capability gaps. We also discuss the new Campus Gateway solution designed to give Meraki customers seamless roaming across large campuses without redesigning their WLAN architecture. While technically impressive—leveraging QUIC for the control plane, VXLAN for tunneling, and active-active high availability—our take is that the solution arrives too late to reclaim customers who’ve already moved on. Finally, Cisco brings assurance intelligence enhancements, offering deeper user experience insights and more actionable troubleshooting tools—though many of these features feel like Cisco playing catch-up. Tune in for real-world perspectives on what’s exciting, what’s complex, and what’s still missing in Cisco’s wireless evolution.
