Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is implementing Cisco ACI VMware vCenter integration for a blade server that lacks support of bonding. Which port channel mode results in "route based on originating virtual port" on the VMware VDS?
Answer(s): D
Option D is correct because MAC Pinning+ on vCenter with a non-bonding blade ensures the VMware VDS routes based on the originating virtual port, matching ACI’s MAC pinning behavior for single-NIC blades and ensuring stable path selection without NIC bonding. Incorrect:A) Static Channel - Mode On does not provide dynamic pinning or per-VM port routing; it just aggregates links without ensuring route based on origin.B) MAC Pinning-Physical-NIC-load implies a fixed mapping without the “originating virtual port” routing behavior.C) LACP Passive does not initiate LACP and does not guarantee per-VM port route origin.E) LACP Active involves active negotiation, not the required origin-based routing for non-bonded blades.
When configuring Cisco ACI VMM domain integration with VMware vCenter, which object is created in vCenter?
Answer(s): C
Option C is correct because integrating Cisco ACI with VMware vCenter creates a VMware Distributed Virtual Switch (VDS) in vCenter to encapsulate and manage ACI-underlay networking over the vCenter/ESXi environment, enabling consistent policy application across ESXi hosts.A) Incorrect — A datacenter object is a vSphere construct created at the broader inventory level, not specifically tied to ACI integration.B) Incorrect — A standard vSwitch is a simple, non-distributed switch limited to a single host, not suitable for multi-host ACI fabric integration.D) Incorrect — A cluster is an aggregation of hosts; ACI integration targets the VDS surface, not creating a cluster by itself.

Answer(s): A
An engineer has set the VMM resolution immediacy to pre-provision in a Cisco ACI environment. No Cisco Discovery Protocol neighborship has been formed between the hypervisors and the ACI fabric leaf nodes. How does this affect the download policies to the leaf switches?
Option C is correct because with pre-provisioned VMM resolution immediacy, ACI downloads policies to leaf switches regardless of Cisco Discovery Protocol neighborship, since the policy provisioning is tied to the VMM integration state, not to CDP adjacency. A) Incorrect — LLDP is not the only discovery protocol impacting policy download in this scenario; VMM integration governs policy provisioning independently of CDP adjacency. B) Incorrect — The trigger is not contingent on the hypervisor host’s connection to the VMM VDS, but on the pre-provisioned VMM resolution state influencing leaf policy download. D) Incorrect — Lack of CDP neighborship does not block policy download under pre-provisioned VMM resolution immediacy.
In the context of VMM, which protocol between ACI leaf and compute hosts ensures that the policies are pushed to the leaf switches for immediate and on demand resolution immediacy?
Answer(s): B
Option B is correct because LLDP is used in ACI to advertise capabilities and port information between leaf switches and compute nodes, enabling immediate policy provisioning and on-demand resolution by the APIC/controller. It supports rapid information exchange for policy push to leaves and host-facing interfaces.A) VXLAN: While VXLAN provides overlay tunneling for VM traffic, it is not the protocol used to push policies from the leaf to compute hosts for immediacy.C) IS-IS: Used as an IGP within the data center fabric for control-plane topology; not the host-policy push mechanism.D) STP: Layer 2 loop prevention; not involved in policy push or immediate resolution in ACI.
Which two components are essential parts of a Cisco ACI Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) domain policy configuration? (Choose two.)
Answer(s): C,D
Option C is correct because a VMM domain policy requires a VMM domain profile to define the overall integration settings with the VMware/Hyper-V environment, and an EPG association to map physical/virtual endpoints to the appropriate endpoint groups within the ACI fabric.A) Incorrect — Layer 3 outside interface association is not part of the essential VMM domain policy; it relates to external connectivity, not VMM domain configuration.B) Incorrect — EPG static port binding is an EPG-level construct, not a core VMM domain policy component.D) Correct — EPG association links a VMM domain policy to specific EPGs, enabling VM-to-EPG mapping within the VMM context.E) Incorrect — IP address pool association is unrelated to VMM domain policy configuration.

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer configures the Cisco ACI fabric for VMM integration with ESXi servers that are to be connected to the ACI leaves. The server team requires the network switches to initiate the LACP negotiation as opposed to the servers. The LAG group consists of two 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. The server learn also wants to evenly distribute traffic across all available links. Which two enhanced LAG policies meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
Answer(s): B,D
Option B is correct because Destination IP Address and TCP/UDP Port load-balancing (LB) distributes traffic based on the destination tuple, helping even flow distribution across links, while LACP is managed by the switch (server learns can rely on switch-side LACP negotiation). Option D is correct because Source IP Address and TCP/UDP Port LB uses source/dest 5-tuple hashing, promoting even distribution across the LAG when both ends participate, aligning with the requirement to spread traffic evenly. Incorrect options: A) LACP Standby does not initiate active LACP negotiation; E) LACP Active is an LACP mode, but does not specify the required host-switch negotiation dynamic for this scenario; C) Source and Destination MAC Address hashing may not yield consistent distribution across two 10G links in this VMM integration.
