Moving to new location

v4meet999

Level 1

Please help.

My orgranization has two offices in same town and now we are planning to move employees in one office to a different location.

Current Sites Status:  Site A (New Location) |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Site B (Production Site) ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Site C (DR Site)

All employees sitting at Site C will move to Site A and then following will be the site status :

Site A (Production Site) ||||||||||||||||||||||||||  Site B (DR Site) |||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Site C (NO Employees/PCs/Servers/ etc..) Nothing will remain at Site C.

We plan to move everything during 1 weekend.  Network should be available at Site A before all servers/devices/pcs/phones,etc are moved.

Considering the given move plan, what will be the best strategy to design Network at Site A. What is the best strategy for IP Addressing/VLAN/Subnets ?

Members, please help. If my question is not clear then feel free to ask more. Thank you.

If you have a lot of users at site A, then you can have a /24 subnet with a vlan per area, location or floor.

If you have lets say 150 users. printer, laptops, etc... per floor, then I would again go with /24 subnet/vlan per floor.

This is all given you are using public IPs and you have enough.  Also, depending on the number of servers, assign a subnet/vlan for those too.
