Lesson Descriptions  
Module 1, "From Introduction to Initialization," begins with the basics. It briefly discusses the state of the industry and some reasons for the immense popularity of ACI. It then moves on to prevalent ACI topologies and the hardware required to build an ACI fabric. The fabric initialization process and some of the tasks that are usually performed right after a fabric is initialized are also covered, as well as the ACI GUI, the CLI, and the ACI object hierarchy together.

Module 2, "ACI Fundamentals," covers the most important objects within the ACI object hierarchy, starting with objects that form tenants. The module then dives in to access policies, configuring ports within ACI, and creating basic contracts for application whitelisting.

Module 3, "External Connectivity," shifts focus to address connectivity from ACI to the outside world. First up is L3Outs, then some brownfield data center migrations into ACI.


Module 4, "Integrations," delves into the integration versatility of ACI. ACI can integrate with a number of industry solutions by executing API calls against these solutions. The DCACI exam calls out two key areas of integrations: The first is integrations with VMWare vSphere, and the second is service graphs.


Module 5, "Management and Monitoring," digs deeper into management by looking at inband management, Syslog, SNMP, and role-based access control.


Module 6, "ACI Anywhere," discusses how ACI enables some pretty advanced architectures, including solutions involving ACI Multi-Pod and ACI Multi-Site.

Module 7, "Exam Preparation and Continuous Learning," covers exam preparation and ACI readiness for the real world.
