Cisco ACI and LISP

[Va.8427]

Hi there.

Is it possible to use Cisco LISP along with ACI? In other words, If we have two data centers and configure them based on Cisco ACI Multi-Site model, Do we still need LISP technology? could we do anything through APIC?

In traditional Networking, since we have L4-L7 services between target vm and xTR router on data center Edge, we need to configure a LISP notifier in gateway in order to inform xTR router about mobility.

How would it be possible in the case of using ACI?

I'm still learning about ACI as I'm setting up my multi-site environment but I can say that ACI removes the need for LISP in the data center. Once all your data center assets are in the fabric, you can advertise host routes to you regular network. No need for additional configuration on ACI 4.x.
