Help regarding building the SD-Access fabric up

[SaubhagyaMishra7219]

Hello members,

Could anyone can help me who have knowledge on SD-ACCESS implementation.

Could you please help me by sharing the steps to make the fabric up with networking devices. Edge fabric node to Border node.

Then how to add the devices into DNA Center?

Hi @SaubhagyaMishra7219 

There is a wealth of documentation online, but I found the following resources very useful when designing and deploying my first SD-Access fabric

https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/solutions/CVD/Campus/sda-fabric-deploy-2019oct.pdf

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/solutions/CVD/Campus/SD-Access-Distributed-Campus-Deployment-Guide-2019JUL.html 

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/solutions/collateral/enterprise-networks/software-defined-access/guide-c07-741859.html 

These documents are based on DNA Center version 1.2.X so a bit outdated now, but the principles of deploying and discovering the fabric border nodes, fabric edge nodes (manually or using LAN automation), fabric provisioning, fabric border to fusion handoff etc are the same.

The Cisco Live On-Demand Library also has some great resources on SDA-Access/DNAC that will supplement the above.

Hope that this helps

Will
