In Cisco ACI, Endpoint Groups can consist of members that are either static or dynamic. Is this statement true or false?

The statement is true; Endpoint Groups (EPGs) in Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) can indeed consist of members that are either static or dynamic.

Static members are manually defined and added to an EPG, which means the administrator explicitly specifies which endpoints belong to the group. This allows for precise control over the network configuration and is especially useful for endpoints that have predictable and stable characteristics.

On the other hand, dynamic members are added to an EPG based on certain policies or criteria defined within ACI. This includes leveraging the application and tenant policies to dynamically classify new endpoints as they connect to the network. For instance, endpoints can automatically join an EPG based on attributes such as their MAC addresses or based on the virtual machine (VM) or host profile they belong to.

The ability to have both static and dynamic members in an EPG allows for flexible and scalable network management, accommodating environments where endpoints may frequently change or where specific configurations are required for certain static endpoints.
