Hello All - ACI is integrated with VMWare vCenter.
In ACI, Under Operational--> Client End-Points, the three values is little confusing. Can you help me to understand what it means. What is the difference between them?
- vmm
- learned, vmm
- learned

Sairam,
Learned = We've learned this endpoint from the datapath (Seen traffic on the wire). Applies to virtual and physical endpoints.
VMM = This is a virtual endpoint that ACI learned from the Virtual Machine Manage (ie. Vcenter). If you only see this as the learned source, it means the endpoint may be silent, and hasn't yet sent any traffic. Applies only to VMM integrated virtual endpoints.
Learned, VMM = We've learned about the endpoint from both sources, which is typically what you'd want to see for VMM integrated virtual endpoints.
Fun Fact: If you had a virtual endpoint (VM) but were not doing VMM integration, you'd only see the endpoint showing as "Learned" source.
