• A broad range of places, such as campuses, office spaces, and shopping
malls, are covered by networks. You can access internal resources of your
school, access internal printers of your company to print documents, or
access the Internet to browse news through the networks.
• These networks belong to campus networks and are generally constructed
by enterprises or organizations. Campus networks not only improve the
operational efficiency of enterprises, but also provide network access
services for external users.
• This chapter describes the basic architecture of a campus network and
details how to build a campus network.

A campus network is a local area network (LAN) that connects people and things in a specified area. Typically,
a campus network has only one management entity. If there are multiple management entries in an area, the
area is considered to have multiple campus networks.

Access
• Typically, a campus network is designed in a
layer hierarchical and modular manner.
• Campus networks can be classified into small,
midsize, and large campus networks based on
the number of terminals or NEs.

Networking Requirements
• A company (with about 200 employees) plans to build a brand-new campus
network to meet service development requirements. The network
requirements are as follows:
▫ Meet the current services requirements of the company.
▫ Provide wired access for employees and wireless access for guests.

VLAN Planning
• A management VLAN is reserved for Layer 2 devices.
• VLANs are classified into the guest VLAN, R&D department VLAN, marketing department VLAN, and
administrative department VLAN.
• Layer 3 switches need to be connected to routers through VLANIF interfaces. Therefore, interconnection
VLANs need to be reserved.

User data
Based on the IP addresses of the AC and APs and
whether data traffic passes through the AC, the
networking can be divided into:
Inline Layer 2 networking
Control packets and data packets are transmitted on a
Bypass Layer 2 networking WLAN.
Inline Layer 3 networking
Control packets are forwarded through CAPWAP
Bypass Layer 3 networking tunnels.
This example uses the bypass Layer 2 networking.
User data packets are forwarded in tunnel or direct
mode.
This example uses the direct forwarding mode.
