Hi All,
I need a very urgent help to configure 5 2960 switches and 1 3560 switch(layer 3).
I want to configure Vlan's into my network, and i want to place 2960's into access-layer and 3560 into distribution layer.
first i want to know the cabling between these switches, how i can connect
2960's have also got 2 spf ports each and 3560 has got 4 spf's and i don't know what for they are used?
on 2960's each has got a total of 24-ports, but the last two ports on each has got spf's above it with the same numbers. i mean port 23 and port 24 has got spf ports above it but they look like on the same port number.
how and when i can use spf ports...i have no idea
if i plug in the cable into gig 0/23 on 3560--------------gig 0/23 of SW1-2960 ,
and SW1-2960 gig 0/24-------gig 0/24 of SW2-2960
gig 0/23 of SW2-2960 to------------gig 0/23 of SW3-2960 and ..........................
..
do i have a chance of having loops?how to avoid it?
i have domain controllers and SQL database servers, mail servers in the network and also Voice switch that will be used by everyone in the organization.
how can i implement my Vlan's? i have call ceentre software running on SQL server and Finance server running also on SQL server. i have 1 amil server, everyone needs access to mail
i have 2 domain controllers, so again evryone need to access the DC's to authenticate
I have Recruitment and marketing departments.
Recruitment ,Marketing, and Call centre uses the same SQL server
To simplify Everyone needs access to Servers, but i want to put finance in to Vlan10 and Callcentre into Vlan 20 , All the servers into Vlan 30 and the rest into Vlan 40
Can anybody come up the solution and design ideas with the sort fo equipment i have got.
please...please respond asap as i need to configure these urgently as we are moving to new office and we bought these cisco equipment
regards
