Scenario-tailored deployment examples |
Provides complete end-to-end campus network deployment examples in specific industries. |
For example, when building an office campus network for a medium-sized enterprise, you can select deployment examples as follows:
- Select a network connectivity deployment example in chapter Campus Network Connectivity Deployment according to Key Points of Network Connectivity Deployment. As the network is a newly deployed midsize network, select the solution of Native AC Solution: Core Switches Function as the Gateway for Wired and Wireless Users.
- Select an egress deployment example in chapter Campus Egress Deployment according to Key Points of Campus Egress Deployment. As the network is middle in size, select the solution of Connecting Firewalls to Egress Routers Directly.
- According to Key Points of Wireless Coverage Deployment, this office network requires only common WLAN coverage.
- Select an authentication deployment example in chapter Wired and Wireless User Access Authentication Deployment according to Key Points of User Access Authentication Deployment. As you have selected the native AC solution with the core switch functioning as the gateway of wired users, select the solution of Native AC + Free Mobility Solution: Core Switches Function as the Authentication Point for Wired and Wireless Users if you want to implement account-based free mobility.
After you complete basic configurations for this midsize office network according to the selected examples, you can also deploy security features according to Key Points of Security Deployment if the enterprise has high security requirements.
