In one aspect, a method includes defining a corresponding depth for each leaf device and each spine device in a leaf-spine network fabric having a hierarchical structure; defining one or more zones in the leaf-spine network fabric; generating a corresponding replication list for each leaf device and one or more spine devices in the leaf-spine network fabric based at least in part of the corresponding depth and the one or more zones defined; and performing ingress replication of network traffic received at a given leaf device using the corresponding replication list of the given leaf device and the corresponding replication list of at least one of the one or more spine devices.
