ACI and network diagramming

[stevemadel]

I have been tasked with creating a network diagram for our ACI environment.  2 questions for everyone.

1.  Does anybody have any visio stencils for mapping out Tenant->Context->BD->AP->EPG relationships?

2.  How would you diagram an EPG that is in one tenant, using a bridge domain from another tenant, and also the other tenants context?

Thanks in advance!

Hi stevemadel,

1.  Does anybody have any visio stencils for mapping out Tenant->Context->BD->AP->EPG relationships?

Sorry, cant help you there.

2.  How would you diagram an EPG that is in one tenant, using a bridge domain from another tenant, and also the other tenants context?

Maybe this will help

In this case the 192.168.100.5 is a DNS and DHCP server for both Your_Tenant EPGs

I hope this helps

Man this is great.  Are you the same RedNectar that runs the rednectar.net blog?  I love it.  We have adopted your naming convention here at work.  I bet I could have found this info there huh.  Either way, thanks for the design tip.  I spent pretty much all day yesterday diagramming our current ACI environment.  Couldn't have done it without your answer.

Thanks for the accolades. And glad you like my blog that I can't identify due to rules of the forum.

I get it man. Seriously though. Was very helpful. I still wonder why Cisco hasn’t released stencils for aci.
