Scenarios
The following scenarios and questions are designed to draw together the content of the chapter
and exercise your understanding of the concepts. There is not necessarily a right answer to each
scenario. The thought process and practice in manipulating the related concepts is the goal of
this section.
Scenario 3-1
Consider Figure 3-7 for the purposes of this scenario.

Scenario 3-1 Topology
The goal in this case is to adequately deploy the proper technologies and line speeds to support
the sites in the figure. Complete the scenario by meeting the needs of each step specified in the
tasks that follow.
1
Make the decision as to which types of routers should be deployed at each site. For the
central site, assume 100+ users and that the number is growing. For the branch site,
assume 10 users, and for the SOHO site, assume a single user.
2
Based on your router choices, deploy WAN topology appropriate to your choices.
