Hi guys,I’m working on a scenario where a tech company has multiple departments across different floors, and I need to design a network topology that keeps each department on a separate network, supports secure internal communication, provides dynamic IPs, and includes a secure guest network. I'm confused about how to properly separate the networks (e.g., VLANs? subnets?) while still allowing secure internal communication. Any guidance, diagrams, or best practices would be appreciated!
ByteLink is an expanding tech firm that has recently relocated to a newly built headquarters. The company is seeking a reliable and secure network infrastructure to ensure smooth internal communication and strong data protection.
The new headquarters includes:
Level 1: Management and Administrative offices
Level 2: Product Engineering division
Level 3: IT Operations and Data Center
Lobby Zone: Designated area for guest access and client meetings
Requirements:
Design a network layout with the essential components to meet the following needs:
Each team or department should operate on its own isolated network.
Staff devices must receive IP addresses automatically.
All internal systems should communicate securely within the organization.
The internal network must have restricted and managed internet access.
There should be a separate and secure Wi-Fi network for visitors, fully isolated from internal systems.
