Chapter 3  Networking Applications

You can deploy S3600 series on many types of networks, such as enterprise networks and broadband access networks. Following are several typical networking applications.

3.1  Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities

On the broadband access network of a residential community, an S3600 series switch is located in the center. It is downlinked to S2000 or S3026 series switches to reach the Ethernet users and uplinked to a core Layer 3 switch through a GE extension module to connect to the MAN backbone.

Figure 3-1 Network diagram for connecting community Ethernet to MAN using S3600 series Ethernet switches

3.2  Application for Connecting Branches or Small- to Medium-Sized Enterprises

For small-to medium-sized enterprises or branches of a large enterprise, S3600 series switches can server as the backbone switches on their networks and can be connected to the headquarters or other branches through routers. As the enterprise size increases, the network also can expand by subtending the S3600 series.

Figure 3-2 S3600 series switches application in branch network of midsize/large enterprise

3.3  Application in Large Enterprise and Campus Networks

In a large enterprise or campus network, the S3600 series switches can operate on the convergence layer. They are downlinked to layer 2 switches, S3000 Series for example; and uplinked to a layer 3 switch through GE expansion modules. These switches together provide a network-wide intranet solution that covers Gigabit-to-backbone and 100 Mbps-to-desktop.
