Regulatory Standards (U.S.)
§ There may be several legal regulations that have an impact on a network’s design.§ US regulations on networks include:
• Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)• Sarbanes-Oxley Act• “Records to Be Preserved by Certain Exchange Members, Brokers
and Dealers”: Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 17a-4

Campus Designs
§ Modular - easily supports growth and change. Scaling the network is eased by adding new modules in lieu of complete redesigns. § Resilient - proper high-availability (HA) characteristics
result in near-100% uptime. § Flexible - change in business is a guarantee for any
enterprise. These changes drive campus network requirements to adapt quickly.

Multilayer Switching Miscellany
§ ASIC-based (hardware) switching is supported even with QoS and ACLs, depending on the platform; 6500 switches support hardware-based switching with much larger ACLs than 3560 switches.§ ASICs on Catalyst switches
work in tandem with ternary content addressable memory (TCAM) and packet-matching algorithms for high-speed switching.
§ Catalyst 6500 switches with a Supervisor Engine 720 and a Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC3) must software-switch all packets requiring Network Address Translation.
§ Unlike CPUs, ASICs scale in switching architectures. ASICs integrate onto individual line modules of Catalyst switches to hardware-switch packets in a distributed manner.

Chapter 1 Summary
§ Evolutionary changes are occurring within the campus network. § Evolution requires careful planning and deployments based
on hierarchical designs. § As the network evolves, new capabilities are added, usually
driven by application data flows. § Implementing the increasingly complex set of business-
driven capabilities and services in the campus architecture is challenging if done in a piecemeal fashion. § Any successful architecture must be based on a foundation
of solid design theory and principles. The adoption of an integrated approach based on solid systems design principles is a key to success.
