2 Introduction to NDFC: Simplifying Management of Your Data Center – BRKDCN 1119
Cisco Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller (NDFC) formerly, known as Data Center Network Manager (DCNM), is the network management platform for all NX-OS (Nexus Switching) enabled deployments, spanning LAN fabric and Classic LAN architectures, IP Fabric for Media, and Storage Networking deployments for the Cisco Nexus-powered Data Center. This session will serve as an introduction to NDFC providing an overview of the product while highlighting the main features of the latest NDFC 12 release. NDFC 12 is an application that runs on top of Nexus Dashboard (ND). In this session, we will briefly look at Nexus Dashboard, NDFC installation, and various deployment options with ND. We will then move on to LAN fabric mode for VXLAN EVPN and Classic LAN fabric. The focus will be on best practice template-based provisioning capabilities with built-in configuration compliance and the myriad deployment scenarios. We will also walk-through Day 2 features like Compute Visibility using Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) integration, the Switch Dashboard, real-time topology search, and finally, close with the licensing structure.
