Re: Network Design

is their a WAN that the 3945 connects to? does it run BGP?

a good design IMO is something that has dual links & meshed to account
for single link/device failure scenarios, but is engineered enough to
ensure no asymmetric routing /. routing blackholes and routing loops,
run FHRP consider that your inbound/outbound routing or east to west
is tested prior to production

if you have the 3750-x then get two this makes them stackable and one
less problem should the single device fail
