The correct answer is A. two vPC interface policy groups. To create two distinct vPCs from two leaf switches (A and B) to connect two separate servers, two vPC interface policy groups are required in Cisco ACI. Each vPC interface policy group defines the configuration for a single vPC.

Question

An engineer is implementing the Cisco ACI fabric and must create two different vPCs from leaf switches A and B. The vPCs are deployed as follows: - vPC 1 encompasses ports Eth 1 /1 on leaf A and B and connects to server 1. - vPC 2 encompasses port Eth1/2 on leaf A and B and connects to server 2. A leaf switch profile listing leaves A and B is already configured Which ACI object must be created to meet these requirements?

Options

  • Atwo vPC interface policy groups
  • Bone access port interface policy group
  • Ctwo PortChannel interface policy groups
  • Done vPC interface policy group

Why each option

To create two distinct vPCs from two leaf switches (A and B) to connect two separate servers, two vPC interface policy groups are required in Cisco ACI. Each vPC interface policy group defines the configuration for a single vPC.

Atwo vPC interface policy groupsCorrect

Each vPC (Virtual Port Channel) requires a dedicated vPC interface policy group in Cisco ACI to define its specific port configuration and association with an Access Port Selector or Port Channel Policy Group. Since the requirement is to create two different vPCs (vPC 1 for server 1 on Eth 1/1 and vPC 2 for server 2 on Eth 1/2), two distinct vPC interface policy groups are needed, one for each vPC.

Bone access port interface policy group

An access port interface policy group is used for single-homed access ports, not for vPCs which aggregate multiple physical links.

Ctwo PortChannel interface policy groups

While vPCs are a type of PortChannel, in ACI, a specific vPC interface policy group is used to configure vPCs across two leaves, differentiating it from a standard PortChannel interface policy group which is typically for a single-leaf LACP bundle.

Done vPC interface policy group

One vPC interface policy group would only allow for the configuration of a single vPC, but the requirement is to create two distinct vPCs.
