Great course, one question that arose regarding redundancy. What i'm wondering is, are the office clients also redundantly connected to the redundant switches? otherwise the office workstations represent a single point of failure, no matter how redundant the switches and routers are. How is that done if my workstation for example has only one ethernet connection to a wall pannel? Is there a spliter somewhere?
You cannot make everything redundant, else you would have to equip every Client with 2 Nics. Clients are not important, but Servers and the Network itself is!
Hallo Tom, IEEE 802.1Q (dot1q) ist nicht Trunking Protokoll? Und 802.1s ist Multiple STP
Richtig, IEEE 802.1D wäre für Spanning Tree!
