 For new nodes in a Cisco ACI Multi-Pod environment to be discoverable by existing APICs, DHCP relay needs to be enabled on the IPN devices’ links connected to the ACI spines. This allows the new nodes to obtain an IP address and be recognized by the APICs for integration into the fabric.

For intra-VRF transit routing between two external routers in different OSPF areas, OSPF virtual links are required. They connect non-contiguous areas to the backbone area, ensuring all areas can communicate even if not directly connected.

 To allow communication between two application profiles that are configured in the same tenant but different VRFs, the contract scope must be set to ‘tenant.’ This is because the contract scope defines the level at which the contract is enforced. A ‘tenant’ scope means the contract applies to all application profiles within the same tenant, regardless of the VRFs they are in. This allows for the necessary route-leaking between the provider and consumer VRFs to enable communication between the application profiles.

To prevent inter-tenant communication while reusing the same contract, the contract should be created in the user tenant with the scope set to VRF and then exported to other tenants. This approach allows the contract to be shared across tenants while maintaining the isolation of each tenant’s VRF. By setting the scope to VRF, the contract’s policies apply only within the context of the specified VRF, thus preventing communication between tenants5678.
