what is the environment?<br />
Does each floor have explicit set access to other floors etc. or each floor is isolated onto itself?<br />
In the abstract it is fine. Presumably you have a core switch which then have a feed to a switch on each floor.

Each floor has an access switch and it all goes to the core on the first floor.

How are you envisioning the setup? DHCP server on each floor, a central pair of DHCP server with the switches in each floor configured with IP helper/DHCP relay agent?<br />
What access inter VLAN do you envision if any?

<div>
inter vlan will be done at the core. IP helper address will be configured for each svi at the core. dhcp service will be handle by a server.

I have a 6 story building and I am planning to have 1 vlan on each floor. Each floor has printers and users. Is there anything wrong with my vlan design? Thanks

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.

Network Architecture

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Switches / Hubs

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
