Hi all
We are looking at purchasing a Riverbed Steelcentral solution including Netprofiler and App Response and would be looking to deploy it within an ACI fabric.
I have searched the web and cannot seem to find a best practice guide for implementing network taps within a spine/leaf design. I would be looking to capture as much data as possible from within the fabric, sending it to the App Response appliance. It seems a fabric span would cover this as we operate in a network centric deployment and have alot of EPGs which would be a pain to setup.
In my mind the appliance would connect direct to the spines on dedicated 10G interfaces, rather than on a leaf but being an ACI beginner i am not sure this can be done as it is only supposed to be leafs connected to spines ( not sure if this is just a best practice or has to be done).
Any one have any experience with network taps in an ACI fabric that they could kindly share?
