Create a contract with a subject that includes a filter for HTTP only
ACI uses a whitelist model. To allow only HTTP, a contract with a subject and filter for HTTP is applied, and no other filters are included.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create a contract with a subject that includes a filter for HTTP only
Why this is correct
Contracts allow traffic; only the HTTP filter is applied, implicitly denying others.
- ✗
Use an external firewall for filtering
Why it's wrong here
The question asks for ACI policy elements.
- ✗
Create a taboo contract to deny all traffic and a separate contract to allow HTTP
Why it's wrong here
Taboo contracts deny specific traffic, but the whitelist model uses contracts to allow, not deny.
- ✗
Create a filter for HTTP and apply it directly to the EPGs
Why it's wrong here
Filters must be part of a contract subject.
