ACI Border Gateways Cisco ACI Border Gateways, introduced with ACI Release 6.1, are a powerful solution for interconnecting your ACI fabrics with other VXLAN EVPN networks.

ACI Border Gateways Cisco ACI Border Gateways 隨 ACI 6.1 版推出，是將 ACI Fabric 與其他 VXLAN EVPN 網絡互連的強大解決方案。

They serve as a bridge between different fabrics, enabling seamless Layer 2 and Layer 3 extension across your data centers.

它們可作為不同結構之間的橋樑，實現數據中心內第 2 層和第 3 層的無縫擴展。

Think of it as a smart gateway that allows you to connect your existing ACI infrastructure with non-ACI environments, like NXOS VXLAN EVPN fabrics, all while maintaining control and security.

將其視為一個智能網關，可讓您將現有的 ACI 基礎架構與非 ACI 環境（如 NXOS VXLAN EVPN Fabrics）連接起來，同時保持控制和安全性。

With this feature, it is expected that when using Nexus Dashboard alongside, you will also be able to provision connectivity and security to both ACI and NXOS VXLAN fabrics in a consistent and centralized way.

有了這項功能，預計在使用 Nexus Dashboard 的同時，您還能以一致和集中的方式為 ACI 和 NXOS VXLAN Fabric 提供連接性和安全性。

Normalizing operations and delivering one Nexus experience.

規範操作，提供統一的 Nexus 體驗。

In addition to ACI Leaf and Spine roles, this feature relies on a dedicated new role called Border Gateway, which is supported on Nexus 9000FX2 switches and newer.

除了 ACI Leaf 和 Spine 角色外，該功能還依賴於一種名為 Border Gateway 的專用新角色，Nexus 9000FX2 交換機及更新版本支持該角色。

A few limitations must be considered as part of the 6.1.2 initial release.

作為 6.1.2 初始版本的一部分，必須考慮一些限制因素。

For example, Border Gateway switches must be dedicated to only perform this function and VNIs must be defined in the VXLAN EVPN domain to match the APIC assigned VNets.

例如，邊界網關交換機必須專用於執行此功能，而且必須在 VXLAN EVPN 域中定義 VNI，以匹配 APIC 分配的 VNets。

These and other current limitations should be removed in future releases to support shared Border Leaf functionality, automated VNI normalization across NXOS and ACI fabrics, and more.

這些限制和其他當前限制應在未來版本中消除，以支持共享邊界葉功能、跨 NXOS 和 ACI Fabric 的自動 VNI 規範化等。

If you want to learn more about this feature, check the Cisco APIC Layer 3 Network Configuration Guide. 3.

Virtual APIC Support for Small and Large Footprints ACI 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 now support the same scalability in either physical or virtual form factors.

虛擬 APIC 支持小規模和大規模部署 ACI 6.1.1 和 6.1.2 現在支持物理或虛擬外形尺寸的相同可擴展性。

With the introduction of two new virtual APIC sizes, it is now entirely up to you whether you deploy APIC physically or virtually, providing you with an option to reduce the burden of physical device management.

隨著兩種新虛擬 APIC 規模的推出，現在完全由您決定是以物理方式還是虛擬方式部署 APIC，為您提供了減輕物理設備管理負擔的選擇。

There are three virtual APIC profiles now available, small, medium, and large.

目前有三種虛擬 APIC 配置文件：小型、中型和大型。

You just have to download the VAPIC OVA file and then assign the corresponding resources based on your profile preference upon deployment. 4.

您只需下載 VAPIC OVA 文件，然後在部署時根據您的配置文件偏好分配相應的資源。4.

Heatless Migration Support between Physical and Virtual APIC Clusters Since we now have the same scale capabilities on both physical and virtual APIC clusters, you might be thinking about migrating from your physical devices to reduce infrastructure.

物理和虛擬 APIC 集群之間的無熱遷移支持 由於我們現在在物理和虛擬 APIC 集群上都具有相同的擴展能力，是以您可能正在考慮從物理設備遷移到減少基礎架構。

Therefore, the new APIC migration workflow allows you to seamlessly transition from virtual to physical APIC clusters and vice versa.

是以，新的 APIC 遷移工作流程允許您從虛擬 APIC 集群無縫過渡到物理 APIC 集群，反之亦然。

This means you can upgrade your infrastructure and change the form factor of your APIC clusters without disrupting your business operations.

這意味著您可以升級基礎設施和改變 APIC 集群的外形尺寸，而無需中斷業務營運。

As you perform the migration through the workflow, keep in mind that the target APIC nodes' out-of-band IP address should be different from the ones configured on the source APICs, while all other fields can remain the same.

在通過工作流程執行遷移時，請記住目標 APIC 節點的帶外 IP 地址應不同於源 APIC 上配置的 IP 地址，而所有其他字段可以保持不變。

You will have to adjust any integration, such as Nexus Dashboard, pointing out to the out-of-band IP address of your cluster once the upgrade concludes.

升級完成後，您必須調整任何集成（如 Nexus Dashboard），使其指向群集的帶外 IP 地址。

Migration from a directly connected APIC cluster or Layer 2 deployment to a remote cluster deployment, also known as L3, is not supported.

不支持從直接連接的 APIC 群集或第 2 層部署遷移到遠程群集部署（也稱為 L3）。

The architecture must be the same between clusters for the workflow to work.

群集之間的架構必須相同，工作流程才能正常運行。

And last, migration to a cloud-hosted APIC cluster is not supported at this point.

最後，目前不支持遷移到雲託管 APIC 集群。

As a summary, with version 6.1.2, ACI is getting a simple, modern look that will allow existing and new users to find what they need faster.

總之，在 6.1.2 版中，ACI 將採用簡潔、現代的外觀，使現有用戶和新用戶都能更快地找到所需內容。

Although the new UI will require multiple releases to be fully implemented, this gradual approach will allow you to provide feedback as we build it.

雖然新的用戶界面需要多個版本才能完全實施，但這種循序漸進的方法可以讓您在我們構建新用戶界面的過程中提供反饋。

So, don't be shy and tell us what you think and how we can make it better.

所以，請不要害羞，告訴我們您的想法，以及我們如何才能讓它變得更好。

In addition, features like ACI VXLAN Border Gateways will enable users to integrate ACI Fabrics to other NXOS and EVPN VXLAN networks using open standards, providing the same data plane transport across different technologies and normalizing operations through Nexus Dashboard.

此外，ACI VXLAN 邊界網關等功能將使用戶能夠利用開放標準將 ACI Fabrics 集成到其他 NXOS 和 EVPN VXLAN 網絡，在不同技術之間提供相同的數據平面傳輸，並通過 Nexus Dashboard 實現正常化操作。
