I have a new project that we are considering to use IE3400 Heavy Duty series switches to support the remote field sites. I have few design questions:Our network architecture includes a main hub site with core switches (standard Cat-9500 stack) and 22...
We're establishing an internal, distinct wireless network for a research partner with multiple lab spaces and various WiFi-enabled devices, including research laptops, tablets, and wireless field devices across our campus. Our objective is to ensure ...
I am engaging a large manufacturing campus network redesign project. There are around 50 buildings in that 3,000-acre campus. There are couple of software applications (e.g. MES and Historian) are used by almost all manufacturing control systems in m...
I am engaging a very large new smart campus (around 10 sqm, 20 large buildings, 2 train stations, multiple bus stations, and lots of audio visual devices) network design competition recently. Some system integrator proposed the Corning One GPON/XGPON...
I am working on designing a small but high availability industrial network that topology could be a "Start (hub & spoke)" or "Ring (DLR)" (TBD, all DCS with dual NICs). May I know what's the highest performance (lowest system down time) network desig...

No, not air gap. I aim to ascertain whether both corporate IT and research domain networks are appropriately segregated and secured. This is particularly pertinent as my IT team considers providing WiFi access to research partners, enabling their wir...
Does anybody try OSPF route/LSA filtering feature to filter some "unwanted" routes in a L3 campus network (L2 campus core network is kind of too complex)? If so, I may filter the specific other Area routes out from type-3 LSA. I guess that may work f...
Hi team, One of the critical questions is how "SAN" connect to this PRP network (if only 2x IES4010 as diagram shows)? All the "DAN"s on the diagram should work fine with LAN-A and LAN-B but can those 4010 play "RedBox" function and support SAN (just...
