I need some help for a class project.
I have an to set up the LANs for 4 different office sites and then set up the WAN. An example of a site is:
1000 Users
10 Servers with 10/100/1000 nics
and 128k access to the internet
I am suppose to put together a proposal for the office. I can handle the IP scheme and the routing, but it needs to be set up for IP phones. I know nothing about IP Telephony and we weren't taught anything about it in the class, so I have no idea where to start with this. I also don't know what series switches and routers to use. I'd also have to implement PIX Firewalls.
I am assuming that with say with that one site with 1000 users, I would need like 20 switches and a few routers. And then those go to another switch, then to the router. I'd have the servers in a DMZ behind a PIX firewall with another switch. And link that switch to the router which would then go to the ISP.
This whole project is way over the head of the class, so I'd appreciate if someone could send me some good links on VOIP. If I have 1000 users and want them to have IP phones, does that double the IP's and nodes on my network? Etc..
I really have no clue where to begin on this. Any help pointing me in the right direction is appreciated.
