However all those topics are covered in the above video post. This post will not focus on the integration between Cisco ACI and VMware as that is not UCS Specific, neither will I detail the actual step by step configuration of the APIC, as there would be far too many screen shots required. This text post will focus on the concepts to understand in order to configure a virtual port-channel (vPC) between the leaf Nexus 9300 switches in ACI mode and the Cisco UCS Fabric Interconnects. I am writing this blog post as a companion post to a complete end to end “How to” video which covers the complete configuration of the Cisco ACI environment through the Cisco UCS Infrastructure and extending the ACI policies into the VMware vSphere Distributed Switch (vDS) or Cisco Application Virtual Switch (AVS). Now as you may know, many of the smart folks at Cisco who developed Cisco ACI are the very same people who brought us Cisco UCS, so it stands to reason that the two technologies share many characteristics, which is one of the reasons why Cisco UCS trained consultants and engineers are finding it a relatively pain free process to understand the guiding principles of Cisco ACI. It’s always a great day when I can combine my passions, now I’m not talking about playing Rugby, underwater, while eating awesomely hot chili peppers, in this instance I’m talking combining Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI).Ĭisco ACI is a very hot topic with my clients, and it makes sense they are very interested in how their existing Cisco UCS infrastructure would integrate into a Cisco ACI environment.
