Networking Concepts and Technology: A Designer's Resource

Example Solution

This section describes an example of a tested and implemented data center, multi-tier network architecture shown in FIGURE 2-9. The network design is composed of segregated networks, implemented physically using VLANs configured by the network switches. This internal network used the 10.0.0.0 private IP address space for security and portability advantages.
