Hello 

i know now that fusion router not needed anymore. And border node can handle route leaking and other 

1- but concern related to edge node, prefer to use 9300 or mow can use 9200b

2- for management switch which will going to connect ISE and DNA and Active Directory and other services, can be any switch, ex. 9200L?

3- for intermediate switch (aggregation) can also any switch even not supported VN or i can remove it and use clos architecture?

gDay @Hamada Ahmed U're right, cause the fusion router isn’t needed anymore since the border node can handle route leaking and other related functions. For the edge node, it’s better to use a 9300 for performance and scalability, but a 9200B can still work in smaller environments (at least I use it LOOOL). And for so the management switch connecting to ISE, DNA, AD, and other services can be a 9200L without any issue. As for the aggregation layer, u can use any switch, but if it doesn’t support VN, it’s better to remove it and move toward a CLOS architecture for better scalability.

hope it helps!
