Hi All,

Like my previous emails, had a network designed for some 460 ports. Hoever,
like yesterday, I have been told now to cater for some 650 ports, and to
plan for VOIP in a few months time.

My topology looked like

                                        [Core Switch - Cisco Catalyst 4006]
                                        /           \           /
\
                                           /         \             /
\
                                          /                   \           /
\
                                    [Cat2950]--------[Cat2950]
[Cat2950]--------[cat2950]              and would extend out another level

That kind of worked for 460 ports:

Would this design work:

                                [---------------------------Core Switch -
Cisco Catalyst 4006---------------------------------]   Floor Closet-Level 3
(core room)
                                /                \              /
\               
                                      /                   \                /
\
                                /                          \              /
\
                                  [Cat2950]--[Cat2950]---[Cat2950]
[Cat2950]---[Cat2950]---[Cat2950]---[Cat2950] 

                                Floor Closet-Level 1
Floor Closet-Level 2

All links back to the core, are fibre connecting to a GBIC on the core 4006.
The link between each cat 2950, is also fibre connecting to a GBIC port.
Would this design work as my core-distribution model, or would it be better
just to have the just 2 switchs at my dist layer ?

Thanks for your time.
