Explanation

When traffic to certain endpoints is dropped in a Cisco ACI fabric configured with hardware proxy, setting the L2 Unknown Unicast option to Flood for Layer 2 switched traffic can prevent this problem. This mode allows unknown unicast traffic to be flooded within the bridge domain, rather than being sent to the spine proxy and potentially discarded if the destination is unknown.
