A network engineer is designing a infrastructure layout for a new satellite clinic that connects to a main regional hospital. Workstations inside the clinic connect to central Ethernet switches in a local communications closet, while high-performance imaging servers require dedicated block-level storage over a Fibre Channel fabric. To reach the main hospital across town, the facility utilizes a leased point-to-multipoint service from a telecommunications provider. Which of the following statements correctly describe the topologies and network types implemented in this architecture? (Select TWO.)
- The workstation infrastructure utilizes a physical star topology where individual link outages are isolated to single connected hosts.Cevap
- The dedicated imaging server storage infrastructure is classified as a Storage Area Network (SAN).Cevap
- CWorkstations assigned to different VLANs on the central access switches can communicate directly at Layer 2 without a router.
- DThe leased connection spanning across the city to the main hospital is classified as a Campus Area Network (CAN).
Cevap
The correct statements are that the workstation infrastructure uses a physical star topology where individual link outages affect only single nodes, and that the imaging server storage infrastructure is classified as a Storage Area Network (SAN).
The local network layout features a physical star topology where end devices independently attach to a central switch, containing cabling faults to single nodes. Additionally, the dedicated Fibre Channel network delivering block-level storage to servers is the definition of a Storage Area Network (SAN).
