Introduction

The Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) HTML5 vCenter plug-in is a user interface that allows you to manage the Cisco ACI fabric from within the VMware vCenter. With the Cisco ACI HTML5 vCenter plug-in, virtualization administrators can define network connectivity independently of the networking team while sharing the same infrastructure.

Earlier versions of the plug-in were designed to work with Adobe Flash. However, VMware has deprecated the Flash GUI, and Adobe will stop updating Flash at the end of 2020. Consequently, beginning with the VMware vSphere 6.7 release, the new Cisco ACI HTML5 vCenter plug-in works with HTML5 instead of Flash.

This document describes the features, issues, and limitations of the Cisco ACI HTML5 vCenter plug-in, Release 1.0.6.

Release Notes are sometimes updated with new information about restrictions and bugs. See the following website for the most recent version of this document:
