Designing The Core and Aggregation Layers

Data Center Design Architectural Overview

Data Center arkitekturen er baseret på en tre lags model.

  • Core laget består af høj-hastigheds OSI lag 3.
  • Aggregation laget forbinder Access-Laget med enten OSI lag 2 eller OSI lag 3.
  • Access Laget giver fysisk forbindelse til Serverne.

fordele ved tre-lags modellen

  • Hvis det er nødvendigt at samme VLAN skal være på flere Access Switche samtidig kan Aggregation-Switchene-----

Lag 2 - Looped design

I Lag to Looped Design er VLAN's termineret i Aggregation laget og Lag 2 services som NIC teaming, Clustering og Statefull Services som for eksempel Firewall, Server Load Balancing, SSL kan udføres på ISO lag 2. Lag tre Routning foregår på Aggregations laget.

STP in the DataCenter

RPVST+ is the most common STP used in the data center today, and is the implementation recommended by Cisco for the enterprise data center.

  • It scales to a large size (about 10,000 logical ports).
  • Coupled with UDLD, loop guard, root guard, and BPDU guard, it provides a strong and stable Layer 2 design solution.
  • It is a proven solution that is easy to implement and scale.

MST is not as common in the enterprise data center because of its characteristics:

  • It permits large-scale STP implementations (about 30,000 logical ports). This is typically more useful for service providers and application service providers.
  • It isn’t as flexible as RPVST+.
  • It has service module implications for firewalls in transparent mode.
  • It is more commonly used with service providers and application service providers.



Limit HSRP instances: The number of VLANs is typically tied to the number of HSRP instances. Cisco recommends a maximum of 500 HSRP instances on the Catalyst 6500 series Supervisor Engine 720 with default timers.
Use MST if it meets the requirements: If you cannot support the STP scaling issues with RSTP, you can consider implementing MST.

High Availability and Cisco NSF with SSO

This convergence time and possible lost sessions can be avoided by using dual Catalyst 6500 series Supervisor Engine 720 engines and Cisco NSF with SSO on the primary aggregation switch of the data center.
