Cisco ACI – Management In-band
This post covers a non-best practice design for the Management Network in Cisco ACI (Application Centric Infrastructure). The implementation of Management In-band instead of the recommended Management Out-Of-Band (OOB). An OOB network increases the odds that you will be able to access the devices in the event that the fabric is experiencing production issues and is unavailable.
