Campus Designs
Modular - easily supports growth and change. Scaling the
network is eased by adding new modules in lieu of complete
redesigns.
Resilient - proper high-availability (HA) characteristics
result in near-100% uptime.
Flexible - change in business is a guarantee for any
enterprise. These changes drive campus network
requirements to adapt quickly.

Traffic Types
Network Management BPDU, CDP, SNMP, RMON, SSH traffic
(for example); low bandwidth
IP Telephony Signaling traffic and encapsulated voice traffic; low
bandwidth
IP Multicast IP/TV and market data applications; intensive
configuration requirements; very high bandwidth
Normal Data File and print services, email, Internet browsing,
database access, shared network applications; low to medium
bandwidth
Scavenger Class All traffic with protocols or patterns that
exceed normal data flows; less than best-effort traffic, such as
peer-to-peer traffic (instant messaging, file sharing, IP phone calls,
video conferencing); medium to high bandwidth

Borderless Networks
Enterprise architecture launched by Cisco in October 2009.
Model enables businesses to transcend borders, access
resources anywhere, embrace business productivity, and
lower business and IT costs.
Focuses more on growing enterprises into global
companies.
Technical architecture based on three principles:
Decoupling hardware from software
Unifying computation, storage, and network
Policy throughout the unified system

Chapter 1 Summary
Evolutionary changes are occurring within the campus
network.
Evolution requires careful planning and deployments based
on hierarchical designs.
As the network evolves, new capabilities are added, usually
driven by application data flows.
Implementing the increasingly complex set of businessdriven capabilities and services in the campus architecture
is challenging if done in a piecemeal fashion.
Any successful architecture must be based on a foundation
of solid design theory and principles. The adoption of an
integrated approach based on solid systems design
principles is a key to success.
