What is the recommended bandwidth of a VSX Inter-Switch Link?
A global furniture retail company called ‘No-Stair Inc.’ requests you design their new WLAN infrastructure for a global footprint. Each location of ‘No-Stair Inc." has a similar layout: three small manager offices, a warehouse, and a ‘retail’ area. The ‘retail’ area and the warehouse together amount to 95% of the location. The IT department of the company is minimally engaged in their LAN refresh so the CTO of the company has shared the information below.
Current WLAN Infrastructure is based on the 802.11n “WIFI4Less” access-points series (both model 2013-INT (2.4 only internal antenna) and model 2019-EXT (dual-band external antenna only). These AP models are standalone without any centralized management. Last year 'No-Stair Inc.’ ran a project called ‘secure-it’ ensuring that all needed network security was implemented to be fully compliant with their security standards. During this project, they also upgraded the AAA. Infrastructure to handle the increased AAA requests. No additional Wi-Fi or security requirements are listed for this WLAN refresh, which means that ‘No-Stair Inc.’ will continue to use bridged SSIDs, with local breakout into different VLANs.
The CTO of ‘No-Stair Inc.’ understands the need for you to ask additional questions to deliver the design. The questions may be sent in written form and will be answered within two weeks.
What is a possible constraint?
You hired a junior engineer to assist you with a large-scale network infrastructure project. The engineer has never worked on such a complex project before and wants to better understand the role that each stakeholder will play in the project.
What is the role of Network Operations in this project?

Manufacturing A.B.C. is an international, mid-sized company specializing in producing industrial equipment. They have been in the market for over two decades and have established themselves as a reputable player in their industry. However, due to rapid technological advancements, their current network infrastructure is outdated and struggling to keep up with the demands of modern manufacturing processes.
Manufacturing A.B.C.'s network is a mix of multi-vendor legacy wired and wireless components, causing frequent downtime and hampering their production efficiency. The aging equipment leads to slow data transfer rates, unreliable connectivity, and increased vulnerability to cyber threats. Fiber Cabling should be also upgraded as mostly OM2 is being used.
Compounding the network issues, the recent departure of the CTO has left the company without a clear direction for the network refresh project. There is a lack of consensus among the management team regarding the scope, budget, and timeline for the upgrade.
The primary objectives of the manufacturing customer are as follows:
• Improve network performance and reliability to enhance production processes and minimize downtime
• Enhance network security to protect sensitive data and intellectual property
• Streamline communication and collaboration among different departments within the organization
• Ensure scalability to accommodate future growth and technology advancements
Manufacturing A.B.C. seeks a comprehensive network refresh that includes the following components:
• Upgrading the wired infrastructure to high-speed Ethernet switches to support increased data transfer rates and reduce latency
• Implementing a robust wireless solution with enterprise-grade access points to provide seamless connectivity across the manufacturing facility
• Centralized network management tools to simplify administration and monitoring of the network
Expectations:
The customer expects the network refresh project to be handled efficiently, with minimal disruption to their ongoing operations. They are looking for a reliable and experienced network solutions provider who can understand their unique manufacturing requirements and deliver a customized solution that aligns with their budget constraints. The manufacturing customer is keen on receiving clear project proposals and support in decision-making, given the recent change of the CTO.
Your role as a network solutions provider is to address their concerns, offer expert guidance, and present a well-defined plan to meet their objectives effectively.
