Implementing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (DCACI) — Question 325

A Cisco ACI fabric must be integrated with the VMware environment. An ESXi host is not attached to the Distributed Virtual Switch (DVS). Two EPGs were created and associated with the VMM domain. An engineer was asked to configure the ACI environment to meet these requirements:

•The EPG contract is pushed to ACI leafs after the ESXi host is attached to the DVS.
•The EPG contract is pushed to the TCAMs only when two EPGs start to communicate.

Which immediacy settings accomplish these goals?

Answer options

• A. Resolution immediacy: On-Demand - Deployment immediacy: Immediate
• B. Resolution immediacy: Immediate - Deployment immediacy: On-Demand
• C. Resolution immediacy: Immediate - Deployment immediacy: Immediate
• D. Resolution immediacy: On-Demand - Deployment immediacy: On-Demand

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct choice, D, sets both immediacy options to On-Demand, ensuring that the contract is only pushed when necessary, which meets the requirements. Options A, B, and C either push the contract immediately or do not align with the requirement of waiting for ESXi attachment or EPG communication.
