the rationale is that all ports wont be active at the same timeso
you can
oversubscribe the access switches by 3 or 4 to 1

Yes, Sem1 does concentrate on Layer 1. We teach the concepts from the
bottom up. But, as we all know, Top Down Network Design is best. Didn't
someone write a book on it? All good design starts by getting Layer 8
issues resolved first.

The access switch(users) should not be oversubscribed by more than 3 to
1in my opinion..
the total user bandwidth if you have a 12 port switch at 100 mb per port
is 1.2 gb...the switch needs to be able to
handle at least 400 mb of thruput
also the core switches should be faster

No maybe your not, but when we in the real world build networks, cost,
politics and budgets
come into play as much if not more than the network itself...

CL: good idea. so let's start with the fundamentals as I und
The product makes a big difference. Are you planning to have one switch
with 300 ports or 30 switches with 12 ports? Are you planning to use
VLANs? If so will there be more than 64?
The traffic pattern makes a huge difference as does the network design.
If you're using 30 switches daisy-chaine
Always allow room for growth, I would implement Core gigabit switch that
interefaces with at least 3 other switches.

I think this is an outdated statement, although I do not know

I think ONE of the main purposes of the term 'layer 3 switching' was to show

several VLANs on one or more switches...No external routers to route b

But the performance is still much faster than manually routing everything.
After the first couple of packets, the switch doesn't need to go through the
router to reach the other subnet. So, in fact, it is really like layer 3
switching.
