Hi,
I have a customer who is planning to replace one of their DC networks later this year with a Cisco Nexus 9K network, running in ACI mode.
My investigations have shown that devices 9504, 9508 and 9516 support ACI mode but the customer can't yet say for certain which will be deployed.
The customer was advised during a Cisco seminar that CA are partnered with Cisco for developing API connectivity so he wants to understand what CA's plans are for managing Cisco's ACI devices.
Can you let me know if CA are doing anything with Spectrum for Cisco ACI network devices?
Are there are any recommendations on how they should/will be modelled and managed in Spectrum?
Will CA be providing any ACI device management solution or just basic SNMP support?
Are any other Spectrum users looking at Cisco ACI devices or other SDN devices?
Any roadmap visibility for these device types and this technology would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
Lesley
