300-630 Exam Dumps : Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure - Advanced (DCACIA)

In a Cisco ACI Multi-Pod deployment, the spine switches within a pod should not be directly connected to the spine switches in another pod. Instead, they should be connected to an IPN (Inter-Pod Network) device that provides Layer 3 IP connectivity between the pods. This setup allows for the extension of the ACI fabric across multiple locations while maintaining a single logical fabric. The IPN device can be a router or a switch with Layer 3 capabilities that can handle the necessary routing protocols and encapsulation methods required for Multi-Pod communication. References := Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure Official Cert Guide

 To establish intra-VRF communication between two EPGs deployed across different sites with different bridge domains, stretching the bridge domain and EPG components is necessary. Option D, “bridge domain,” and Option E, “EPG,” must be configured as stretched to facilitate communication across different sites within the same VRF. References:= Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure Official Cert Guide

In Cisco ACI, Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instances are used to create separate routing tables for network traffic management. An unenforced VRF does not apply policies or contracts for communication between endpoints, allowing free communication without the need for explicit permissions. By implementing an unenforced VRF in the common tenant and mapping all required Bridge Domains (BDs) to it, each department’s BDs can communicate with one another without configuring contracts or VRF route leaking, thus meeting the company’s requirement for redesigning their networking architecture. References: Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure Official Cert Guide
