Please advise on the best architecture for the following network scenario:
60 Shared Offices in one building with 2 sides
Each office separate isolated network (VLAN) with dedicated DHCP segment.
2 x ZyXel GS2210-48 Layer 2 48 ports switches
4 Internet lines load balanced with 1 x ZyWall USG310 with 8 configurable ports.
What is the best practice:
1. Connect each switch directly to the router USG310
or
2. Connect Slave switch to Master switch with single or aggregated 2-3 ports of 1GB each.
Then Master switch with 1GB to a single port on ZyWall USG310
There will be no traffic between offices i.e. on the LAN.
All traffic will be towards internet with equal bandwidth supply.
