1 Integrating Cisco UCS with Cisco ACI Marian Klas, Systems Engineer Data Center February 2015
2 Agenda: Connecting workloads to ACI Bare Metal Hypervisors UCS & APIC Integration and Orchestration Converged Stack Examples 2
3 Connecting workloads to ACI: Bare Metal Servers 3
4 Connecting Physical Workloads to a Port Infrastructure configuration (Access Policy) Switch Profile Interface Profile Policy Group = port configuration Switch 101 Switch 102 Etc Interface 1/1 Interface 1/2 Etc Aggregates port configurations It can be of type Interface, Portchannel, vpc etc 4 4
5 Enabling VLANs on a set of ports What is it? It s just a way to tell the fabric which VLAN ranges are expected where, it s useful for VLAN reuse Attach Entity Profile Aggregates Domains and has a reference with the policy-group Physical Domain Can be made of multiple VLAN pools VLAN Pool Defines a range of VLANs 5 5
6 Mapping between Tenant View and Infrastructure view Tenant View Infrastructure View EPG maps to port, VLAN Port (i.e. portprofile, switch profile) Policy Group = port configuration Attach Entity Profile VLAN must be part of AEP 6
7 How to Connect Servers Tenant leaf portchannel virtual machine virtual machine EPG, bridge domain, router 8
8 Mapping an EPG to a Server Port 9

15 Connecting workloads to ACI: Hypervisor Integration 18

17 Hypervisor Interaction with ACI Two modes of Operation Non-Integrated Mode Integrated Mode VLAN 10 VLAN 10 VXLAN APP WEB DB DB ACI Fabric as an IP-Ethernet Transport Encapsulations manually allocated Separate Policy domains for Physical and Virtual ACI Fabric as a Policy Authority Encapsulations Normalized and dynamically provisioned Integrated Policy domains across Physical and Virtual 20 20
18 Hypervisor Integration with ACI Control Channel - VMM Domains Relationship is formed between APIC and Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) Multiple VMMs likely on a single ACI Fabric Each VMM and associated Virtual hosts are grouped within APIC vcenter DVS vcenter AVS SCVMM Called VMM Domain There is 1:1 relationship between a Virtual Switch and VMM Domain VMM Domain 1 VMM Domain 2 VMM Domain
19 Hypervisor Integration with ACI F/W EPG WEB APIC Application Network Profile L/B EPG APP WEB PORT GROUP APP PORT GROUP DB PORT GROUP VM VM VM EPG DB ACI Fabric implements policy on Virtual Networks by mapping Endpoints to EPGs Endpoints in a Virtualized environment are represented as the vnics VMM applies network configuration by placement of vnics into: Port Groups (VMWare), VM Networks (Hyper-V) Networks (OpenStack) EPGs are exposed to the VMM as a 1:1 mapping to Port Groups, VM Networks or OpenStack Networking
20 Hypervisor Integration with ACI Endpoint Discovery Virtual Endpoints are discovered for reachability & policy purposes via 2 methods: APIC Control Plane Learning: - Out-of-Band Handshake: vcenter APIs - Inband Handshake: OpFlex-enabled Host (AVS, Hyper-V, etc.) Data Path Learning: Distributed switch learning Control (vcenter API) LLDP/CDP used to resolve Virtual host ID to attached port on leaf node (non-opflex Hosts) Control (OpFlex) Data Path Data Path VMM DVS Host OpFlex Host 26 26
