Hi Giles, I suggest you google with the following keywords "Dynamic Fabric Automation (DFA) host route" and have a look at how host routes are used in the DFA, and then come back to confirm the above assertion. If you couldn't find it, feel free to tell me and I will provide you a link. > is there any way we could get feedback from some data center operators? > Perhaps we should ask NVO3 for comments? I think the most efficient and simple way is to ask some feedback from your colleagues who knows about DFA.
