Modular Design of Enterprise Architectures
Three areas of focus in modular network design are as follows:
Enterprise campus: This area contains the network elements required for independent operation within a single
campus or branch location. This is where the building access, building distribu¬tion, and campus core are
located.
Server farm: A component of the enterprise campus, the data center server farm protects the server resources
and provides redundant, reliable high-speed connectivity
Enterprise edge: As traffic comes into the campus network, this area filters traffic from the external resources
and routes it into the enterprise network. It contains all the elements required for efficient and secure
communication between the enterprise campus and remote locations, remote users, and the Internet.
