All workloads in VLAN 1001 have been migrated into EPG-1001. The requirement is to move the gateway address for VLAN 1001 from the core outside the Cisco ACI fabric into the Cisco ACI fabric. The…

Disabling ARP Flood is a related measure for reducing broadcasts, but Hardware Proxy is a more comprehensive solution that specifically addresses both inter-EPG routing and optimized ARP handling to minimize flooding for a moved gateway.

Enabling Hardware Proxy on the Bridge Domain allows the ACI fabric to handle ARP requests efficiently by learning endpoint MAC and IP addresses, proxying ARPs, and facilitating inter-EPG routing, which minimizes flooded ARP traffic and supports moving the gateway function into ACI.

Disabling Local IP Learning Limit affects the number of IP addresses an endpoint can learn, but it does not directly address the requirements for moving a gateway into ACI or minimizing flooded traffic.

Enabling Flood would increase flooded traffic in the fabric, directly contradicting the requirement to minimize flooded traffic.
