Planning a Network
Posted: 16 Jul 2012, 19:18
As the title says.
I need to plan a network that'll cater for ~1500 IP devices (access controllers). Devices require a static IP address.
Final development (5 phases) will have 25 buildings/4 floors each /~14 devices per floor.
We're talking low amounts of data - although I would like to run fibre between the buildings just in case I can convince the developer to go for IP cameras on every floor as well.
Where do I start?
And then - how much maintenance will something like this need?
Development is in the Northern Cape so if needs be I'll employ someone to do the day-to-day stuff.
