Course #:TP3069 Cisco ACI Migration Training Cisco’s experience and knowledge gained from typical ACI clients’ compelling events and expected business outcomes proves that users can adopt different transition paths to ACI. In this 3-day Cisco ACI training course, we will discuss specifically how to migrate to ACI using two different methods: Network mode and Application mode. In addition, the ACI learning class will discuss virtualization migration, fabric path migrations, and other migration topics. It is recommended that students have a basic, working understanding of Cisco ACI to fully grasp the ACI course content. Objectives Upon completing this course, the learner will be able to meet these overall objectives: Discuss options available to migrate servers and applications to ACI Better understand the end requirements and map the right ACI migration mode(s) Articulate the high-level steps of a selected ACI migration mode Understand the applicability of migration modes to your business outcomes Prerequisites The knowledge and skills that a learner should have before attending this course are as follows: Familiarity with Cisco ACI The primary audience for this course is as follows: People interested in Cisco ACI Migration Duration Three days Outline of Cisco ACI Migration Training Module 1: ACI Migration Network Centric ACI Deployment as a L2 Fabric ACI Deployment as a L3 Fabric Network Centric ACI Migration Nexus 9000 Migration from Standalone to ACI mode Hybrid (Network and Application Centric) ACI Migration Virtual Environment Migration ACI Virtual Migration Assistant Application Centric ACI Deployments for Known Application Profiles ACI Approach to Application Operational Challenges Application Profiling Methodology Advanced Services: Application Profiling for ACI Module 2: Hardware and Software Migration Repurposing existing hardware Determine hardware requirements for migration Migration from NXos to ACI on a Nexus 9000 Reverting to NXoS Migrating from VMware DVS to AVS Migrating from Nexus 1000V to AVS Module 3: Multi-POD ACI Deployments Connecting Two ACI Fabrics Single Fabric Scenarios Multi-Site (Stretched) Fabric Synchronization of Fabric Policy Module 4: Migrating a Brownfield Network to ACI L2 Connectivity with VLAN to EPG Static Mapping Virtual Workloads Migration Considerations Default Gateway Migration Considerations L3 Routing Between Brownfield and Greenfield Networks Migration of L4-L7 Network Services Module 5: Managing Flooding Within the Fabric Multi-Destination Protocol Traffic Configure ACI Bridge Domain settings Migrate Workloads Complete the Migration Module 6: Managing the Default Gateway Migrating Default Gateway to the ACI Fabric Extension and Connecting Gradual Migration Simple Policy During Migration - Any-to-Any Configuration Dynamic ACL’s vPC & ACI Co-Existence Module 7: L4-L7 Migration ACI Service Insertion via Policy Automation for Service Insertion and Configuration Service Automation Through Device Package L4-7 Service graph with “unmanaged” device Standard Architecture with Services Services Switch Module 8: Layer 3 Migration Migrating the Connectivity to the Core ACI Routing Capabilities Route Export and External EPG Configuration VPC and Routing Protocols Module 9: Migrating WAN and DCI to ACI Single Fabric (Multi-Site (Stretched) Fabric) Integration of Stretched ACI Fabric with LISP Integrating with OTV Same Pervasive GW IP & MAC on independent fabrics Multi-Site Leveraging IP Based EPG mBGP EVPN - Ethernet VPN Multi-Fabric Scenarios Extending BGP VXLAN to the PE Multi-Pod +ASR9K and N7K Border Leaf Module 10: Migrating Virtual Switching ACI Provides Automated Integration for all workloads VMWare Integration 5.1, 5.5, 6.x, vCenter Plugin and vRealize Microsoft Interaction with ACI Openstack and OVS Integration with ACI Module 11: Application Virtual Switch Hypervisor Integration with ACI APIC VMWare Integration ACI Hypervisor Integration – VMware DVS/vShield Application Virtual Switch with OpFlex in ACI Fabri Extending ACI to Existing Virtual & Physical Networks Remote VTEP (Virtual) via AVS Hypervisors vs. Linux Containers Docker and ACI Module 12: FabricPath to ACI Migration Advantages to Adopting ACI over FabricPath Initial Design Considerations Migration Strategy Infrastructure Deployment Considerations Migration Scenario 1 Migration Scenario 2 Lab Outline Lab 1: Nexus 9000 - Standalone to ACI Conversion and back Lab 2: Configure Basic Network Constructs Lab 3: Migrating to AVS – Install an AVS Lab 4: Client Scenario A - build a migration strategy Lab 5: Client Scenario B - build a migration strategy Lab 6: Configure Communication to an existing Layer 3 Network Lab 7: Configure Communication to an existing Layer 2 Network Lab 8: Create EPGs and BDs corresponding to VLANs in the existing infrastructure.
