In a spine-leaf architecture, every leaf switch must connect to every spine switch in the fabric. This creates a full-mesh topology between the two layers, ensuring that traffic is always a predictable number of hops away and providing high bandwidth and redundancy. Leaf switches do not connect to other leaf switches, and spine switches do not connect to other spine switches.
