Hello all!

I'm planning to implement a network infrastructure for one of my clients but im not an expert in the field. I had implemented a CCTV system into my clients residence which ranges from 90-100 cameras and 6-7 switches. I have fibre connectivity between the switches and has a router that provides the DHCP server.

My client now wishes to implement a firewall and a unified DHCP server. The design I have created has a main router thru which the internet can be distributed on site. Which then passes thru the firewall to go the switch. The switch I am planning to use will have direct fibre connections to all switches of the site.

I would love to hear from you guys what products you guys would suggest me to use here and also tips to have a smooth transition. If any further information is required regarding the project, do ask..

thank you!

When it gets to that size

I have to draw up a RFQ and send it out for quotes. I never field such a network except in our own company because we are more a design house and not running a network support company.

If you want to also get into network support then what you have there will keep you employed for some time as that size of network always seems to need repair and service.
