I'm reading Priscilla's "Top-Down Network Design". I recommend it as a complement to the Semester 7 BCMSN books.
Is there a design strategy or methodology that I can use to diagram application layers into the logical topology? The application I have in mind is AVVID. Suppose the implementation was to take place in two phases: integration of data and IP telephony in phase I, adding video conferencing in phase II. Suppose also that the design included several VG200's and the MCS 7800 (either 7825-800 or 7835-1000), also a switching backbone consisting of 6509 switch with supervisor engine in module 1 and 48-port IP phone blades in modules 2, 3, etc. Phase I would use external 2600 routers; in phase II routing would be moved to the 6509, keeping one or more of the 2600's as backup. Is there a standard technique for incorporating AVVID applications such as this in the logical and/or physical network diagram? I'd especially like to find a template of the logical components and how they interact with each other. That might help explain how to select the hardware and software, and where to locate them in the logical and physical topologies. -- TIA, TT Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=42933&t=42933 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
