What sort of Network will it be?

Post by Kanonfodda »

This will be a very simple network, as there are only to be 40 or so people at the event.

I am hoping to get 2*24 port switch and 1*16port+ switch.

the 16 port switch will act as the network backbone, with all servers, and the other two switches being plugged into this.

The two 25 port switches will be located at opposite ends of the hall, allowing minimum distance from PC to switch.

Again, any question, requests or suggestions, post them here :D

Did you know you can triple the bandwidth if you keep the string wet? It means leaving big buckets lying around through which the string runs, but the performance is worth it.
