Thanks greatly for you expertise. &nbsp;Just to explain a little better what I meant by:<br />
&gt;&nbsp;The network will run different software for remote online working and collaboration where documents are generated and shares. <br />
<br />
The network I want to build will be used in an environment which would be similar to project management but with no physical office. Everything will be done online, remotely. Applications used will either be compatible with MS Server 2012 or a popular Linux. <br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.

I want to use the resources of two servers to create an integrated platform for creating virtual machines. I need the best software to monitor and assist with the installation of virtual machines. And finally to know how a switch, router, NAS and security can be integrated. The network will run different software for remote online working and collaboration where documents are generated and shares. The network will also use cloud resources. All hardware will be in one central location.

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.

MySQL is an open source, relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Acquired by Oracle in 2009, it is frequently used in combination with PHP installations, powering most of the WordPress installations.

Network Management involves issues that are independent of specific hardware or software, including email policies, upgrade planning, backup scheduling and working with managed service providers for Desktop-As-A-Service (DaaS), Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) and the like through the use of tools, coupled with manufacturer standards, best practice guidelines, policies and procedures plus all other relevant documentation. Network management also includes monitoring, alerting and reporting, management reporting, planning for device or service updates, the backup of configurations, the setting of key performance indicators and measures (KPIs/KPMs), associated service level agreements and problem records as part of the IT Service Management (ITSM) framework.
