I am planning to design the network for video traffic movement . attached digaram designed for in this regard. could you please check and notify me if i am on the right track .

Thanks in adavnce

Any help is much appreciated

Thanks

I don't see anything in this diagram that gives me pause.  I would recommend, if you haven't implemented this already, that you run HSRP Active/Standby for Vlans 10 & 20 for added redundancy.

Dear Antonio,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes we plan to run HSRP active/standby on this Vlans.

Could you please clear my below doubts with regards to failure of STM primary link & vlan 10 link on multicast device (Encoder).

1) when primary STM-4 link go down all traffic from multicast server go via Etherchannel to other l3 switch then to STM 4 backup link ....is it not? do i need to have L3 etherchannel between L3 switches?

2) when vlan 10 link fails all traffic from multicast device will be sent out via Vlan 20 to other L3 switch . again do we need L3 ether channel between switches ?

Thanks

In your HSRP configuration you could also use the track function. If your primary STM-4 link goes down, the priority of the active router decreases, so your secondary L3 switch becomes the active one, so video traffic doesn't have to pass through the L2 etherchannel

Dear,

Please find attached deisgn i am planning .

using current setup i can have both STM1 link (ethernet handover) and Physical connection redundancy.   as per u suggestion i think tracking cannot be done as the ethernet interface never goes down.

thanks
