Im having trouble with a cisco case study. I need to design the network infrastructure for a building with 5 floors. 20 terminals per floor but the top two floors must have wlans as well as networked terminals.
Im not sure on a suitable topology. I thought a tree would be suitable but would just a star suffice?
I also dont know how many switches and patch pannels I would need. Is a switch per floor needed? Would each floor need patch pannels? To connect all the floors together i would imagen a fiber optic backbone would be appropiate.
Is it sensible to have a subnet per floor?
Any suggestions welcome!
Cheers
