Explanation:

Large-Building LANs

Large-building LANs are segmented by floors or departments. The building-access component serves one or more departments or floors. The building-distribution component serves one or more building-access components. Campus and building backbone devices connect the data center, building-distribution components, and the enterprise edge-distribution component. The access layer typically uses Layer 2 switches to contain costs, with more expensive Layer 3 switches in the distribution layer to provide policy enforcement. Current best practice is to also deploy multilayer switches in the campus and building backbone.

Cisco Enterprise Architecture Model

Core

– Fast transport

– High reliability

– Redundancy

– Fault tolerance

– Low latency and good manageability

– Avoidance of slow packet manipulation caused by filters or other processes

– Limited and consistent diameter

– Quality of service (QoS)

Distribution

– Policy-based connectivity

– Redundancy and load balancing

– Aggregation of LAN wiring closets

– Aggregation of WAN connections

– QoS

– Security filtering

– Address or area aggregation or summarization

– Departmental or workgroup access

– Broadcast or multicast domain definition

– Routing between virtual LANs (VLAN)

– Media translations (for example, between Ethernet and Token Ring)

– Redistribution between routing domains (for example, between two different routing protocols)

– Demarcation between static and dynamic routing protocols

Access

– Layer 2 switching

– High availability

– Port security

– Broadcast suppression

– QoS

– Rate limiting

– Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection

– Virtual access control lists (VACL)

– Spanning tree

– Trust classification
