Hello All,
A plan is required to build an internal network that serves 100 users in the company and is capable of future development to accommodate from 300 to 500 users
The company is divided into five departments located in the same neighborhood. All departments are connected to one internal network via the Nanostation and switches, some of the switches are managed and others are not. There are 2 Cisco switches, one of which is a multilayer switch.
The five sections are completely covered by Wi-Fi
The goal is to create a strong stable network using Cisco devices
What are the suggested devices (with prices if possible)? And what is the connecting method?
thank you.

- My advise is that you contact and or work with a re-seller to execute this project.

Your advice is appreciated, please send an email, but I still want to know a few things before contacting the re-seller.

What is the budget for this exercise?

There is no set limit, what is important is the strength and stability of the network. But of course, we don't want to install devices that we can work without.
As long as we need these devices to operate, the cost is not important.

A network upgrade with a sky-is-the-limit budget? And you are asking to provide design assistance? For free?
If cost is not even in contention, there would be an army of VAR happy to take this job.

Thanks for your help,
We think our answer was clear and that no one said "a sky-is-the-limit budget"
We needed the help of specialists to choose.
The case is that we own a mixture of Cisco devices and another famous company, and the new administration decided to dispense with all the old devices and replace them with devices from one company, but it has not yet decided with which companies will cooperate, so we decided to start asking about Cisco devices.
What prompted us to ask you here is the administration's _as a Cisco customer_ confidence in the opinions of the specialists in Cisco Community, but we are afraid that we asked in the wrong place.
Thank you for your cooperation.

>but we are afraid that we asked in the wrong place.
You didn't exactly ask in the wrong place , but you need to consider the following. The forum usually deals with short-lived practical and or concrete technical questions. For important projects advises can be given here but they are not authoritative. Meaning , if you have an important project such as yours then paying a re-seller for advices builds a stronger case for your business.
