DEPLOYING A FULLY ROUTED ENTERPRISE CAMPUS NETWORK
Offers hierarchy—each layer has
specific role
• Modular topology—building blocks
• Easy to grow, understand, and
troubleshoot
• Creates small fault domains—clear
demarcations and isolation
• Promotes load balancing and
redundancy
• Promotes deterministic traffic patterns
• Incorporates balance of both Layer 2 and
Layer 3 technology, leveraging the
strength of both
• Can be applied to all campus designs;
multilayer L2/L3 and routed access
designs
