Cisco ACI fabric must send a packet between two pods in a Cisco AC1 Multi-Pod topology where ARP flooding is disabled within the bridge domain. How does a Cisco ACI spine switch .. ARP messages from a leaf switch in POD1 to POD2?
B) ARP optimization is applied and sends ARP to remote anycast. and C) A proxy ARP message is sent to destination group 225.224.0.0.
A) The ARP message is dropped and connectivity is lost between the endpoints.
D) An ARP Glean message is sent to multicast address 239.255.255.240.

Wait, proxy ARP to a multicast? That sounds odd!

I remember something about ARP optimization, but I'm not sure if it specifically applies to anycast in this scenario.

Based on my understanding of ACI, I think the key is that the spine switch needs to find a way to get the ARP info to the other pod without flooding. The ARP optimization approach sounds like the most likely solution.

I'm pretty confident that the ARP optimization option is the right answer here. The spine switch should be able to send the ARP to a remote anycast address to get the information to the other pod.

Okay, let's see. Since ARP flooding is disabled, the spine switch can't just broadcast the ARP message. I'm guessing it has to use some kind of optimization or proxy to get the ARP info to the other pod.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the ACI fabric and Multi-Pod topology to figure out how the spine switch handles ARP messages in this scenario.

I'm a bit confused on the proxy ARP and ARP Glean options. I'm not sure how those would work with the Multi-Pod setup and disabled ARP flooding. I'll need to review those in more detail.

I'm a bit confused by this question. Involving the community could be good, but there are also potential security concerns to consider. I'll need to review my notes and think through the tradeoffs.

Okay, I think the key here is to focus on the part of the question that says "it is not usually necessary to build something new." That sounds like it could be the "Start where you are" principle. I'll go with that.

Option D looks interesting, but I don't think sending an ARP Glean message to a multicast address is the right solution here. Gotta stay focused on the ARP handling in the Multi-Pod scenario.
