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 alsodeploy multilayer switches in the campus and building backbone.
