Customers can choose from a wide range of industry-standard network applications, operating systems, and hardware platforms to realize cost savings and improvement in service agility.
This document provides an example for the deployment of a pair of top-of-rack (ToR) Dell EMC Networking switches into an existing Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) environment. The example details how Layer 2 domains can be extended into and out of an ACI fabric with Dell EMC Networking switches in a way that provides high throughput and failure tolerance. The example shows how devices that are connected to Dell EMC Networking switches can be integrated with the ACI fabric to communicate with and access ACI resources.
The deployment example includes instructions to configure a pair of Dell EMC S5248F-ON switches. The example demonstrates connectivity to a pair of Cisco Nexus C93180YC-EX switches in ACI mode.
