Explanation
In Cisco ACI, host tracking refers to the process of maintaining the mapping between endpoint identities (such as MAC and IP addresses) and their location in the fabric. This tracking is done on local endpoints, meaning endpoints that are directly connected to a leaf switch. The leaf switch keeps track of endpoint presence, movement, and location updates. Remote endpoint information is learned and distributed across the fabric using the COOP (Council of Oracle Protocol) and MP-BGP EVPN mechanisms, but the initial tracking of endpoint state happens at the local leaf where the endpoint is connected.
