Considerations for hierarchical network switches (8) Data Stores and Data Servers Analysis When considering the traffic for data stores and servers, consider both client-server traffic and server-server traffic. Client-server traffic is the traffic generated when a client device accesses data from data stores or servers. Bandwidth aggregation and switch forwarding rates are important factors to consider when attempting to eliminate bottlenecks for this type of traffic. Considerations for hierarchical network switches (9) Client-server traffic Client-server traffic typically traverses multiple switches to reach its destination Considerations for hierarchical network switches (10) Server-server traffic is the traffic generated between data storage devices on the network. Some server applications generate very high volumes of traffic between data stores and other servers. Traffic across data center switches is typically very high due to the server-server and client-server traffic that traverses the switches. As a result, switches selected for data centers should be higher performing switches than the switches you would find in the wiring closets at the access layer. Considerations for hierarchical network switches (11) Server-Server Traffic To optimize server-server traffic, servers needing frequent access to certain resources should be located in close proximity to each other so that the traffic they generate does not affect the performance of the rest of the network. Considerations for hierarchical network switches (12) Switch Features in a Hierarchical Network (1) Switch Features in a Hierarchical Network (2) Port security allows the switch to decide how many or what specific devices are allowed to connect to the switch. Consequently, it is an important first line of defense for a network. VLANs are an important component of a converged network. Voice traffic is typically given a separate VLAN. Voice traffic can be supported with more bandwidth, more r
