The IT Pro’s Guide to Network Switch Physical Design & Configuration
 
Is your core switch properly racked or sharing a dusty shelf with the cleaning supplies?

Where a switch lives matters. So does how it’s configured. The IT Pro’s Guide to Network Switch Physical Design & Configuration offers practical advice for avoiding common setup problems and making smarter decisions about your network.
 
 
 
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
  • Check airflow and intake/exhaust paths to help prevent overheating.
  • Calculate oversubscription before deciding whether you need 10 Gbps fiber.
  • Set spanning tree priorities to help prevent an access switch from becoming the root bridge by accident.
  • Configure access switches as EIGRP stubs to limit query scope and reduce routing overhead.

Give your switches a setup you can trust.
