Cisco ACI to NSX-T

IHAC who is moving away from Cisco ACI OnPrem to VMware Cloud, backed by NSX-T. They have close to 150 micro-segmentation rules on Cisco ACI. The Customer will talk to Cisco about how they can be exported.

My query is, how do I import these rules in NSX-T without having to manually create 150 DFW rules?

Thanks

Are you referring to VMC as the destination?

It is not VMC

Just thinking, it should not matter which cloud service it is. NSX-T works the same way for all

Thanks. The reason why I asked you what VMware cloud you are referring to is that there are features/limitations which will work and which won't work based on the solution integrations. That being said, rule inspection, configuration, scope the way they work is totally different if you compare ACI micro-segmentation and NSX. I'm not aware of any ease of migration considering your request, even if it is possible you will have to do further fine-tuning based on what is required for the right security posture in NSX. My recommendation would be to reach out to the VMware sales or account team and they might guide you with the supported procedure.
