Cisco Network Topologies and LAN Design
Cisco network topologies and LAN network designs are vital internet platform for business activities as well as communication. In line with this, these network infrastructures makes the relaying of information from one source to another via the Internet easier for millions of individuals located in different parts of the universe. In analyzing these network infrastructures, the paper conducts a case study on growth and usage trends of Cisco's network topologies as well as LAN design in schools located within Baltimore, Maryland.
Network Usage Statistics
Since the inception of Cisco network, the number of the network design users worldwide has grown steadily over the years. At the beginning of the year 2000, there were less than 15 million Cisco network users across the globe (Odell, Korgen, Schumacher, & Delucchi, 2000). Moreover, widespread Internet usage has made the spread of the network design easier and made and the world smaller; a digitalized village. In the United States of America, the number of Cisco network and LAN subscribers has steadily risen to over two million subscribers in the present times. In addition, the use of Cisco network topologies has continued to serve a more diverse number of individuals and the table and graph below highlight the incredibly fast evolution of the topologies in America.
From both the table and chart, a forecast can be easily done to find the number of future network users. The number of network bandwidth usage by the current users stand at 2,130 and has the possibility of rising steadily to reach a saturation volume of 3,500, an equivalent value of about 3 users for every 50 students by the following year (Andonova, 2006). The table above is a representative of the world's Cisco network usage; Cisco network topology and LAN network designs has grown since the 2000 and has continued to be on a steady rise and is expected to accelerate reaching a plateau phase by 2030; this gives an approximately three-fourths of the world having access to Cisco network connectivity.
