cisco aci remote leaf configuration

Short overview about Cisco Aci Remote Leaf Configuration and what's good to know about.

In order to configure a Cisco ACI remote leaf, you must first configure the primary leaf. Once the primary leaf is configured, you can then configure the remote leaf.

The first thing you need to do is to configure the remote leaf’s system ID. This is done by going to the Fabric > Access Policies > System ID Policies page and clicking the Add button. You will need to specify the system ID, which is a unique identifier for the remote leaf, and the description.

Once the system ID is configured, you need to configure the remote leaf’s BGP peering. This is done by going to the Fabric > External Routing > BGP Peers page and clicking the Add button. You will need to specify the AS number, the router ID, the description, and the system ID of the remote leaf.

The next step is to configure the remote leaf’s interface policies. This is done by going to the Fabric > Access Policies > Interface Policies page and clicking the Add button. You will need to specify the remote leaf’s system ID, the interface policies, and the description.

The last step is to configure the remote leaf’s VRF. This is done by going to the Fabric > External Routing > VRFs page and clicking the Add button. You will need to specify the remote leaf’s system ID, the VRF, and the description.

Once all of these steps are completed, you will have successfully configured a Cisco ACI remote leaf.
