Role of the Cisco Certified Design Associate
Your role as a Cisco Certified Design Associate is to be a networkdesign consultant. You will act like
an architect, building comprehensive designs that solve your customer's internetworking problems and
provide the required functionality, performance, and scalability. In the same way that an architect
designs a building or house for a client, you will develop blueprints for an overall internetwork
design, as well as components plans for various pieces of the internetwork.
CiscoFusion
Cisco has developed an integrated network architecture, called CiscoFusion. With the CiscoFusion
architecture, multiple networking technologies, operating at different networking layers, can provide
the right capabilities to handle different networking issues.
Many of your customers may already be aware of the recent internetworking trend toward an
integrated view of networking technologies. As a Cisco Certified Design Associate, you will be

uniquely positioned to produce network designs, based on CiscoFusion, that meet the needs of
state-of-the-art networks that integrate Layer 2, Layer 3, and ATM services. For example, the
intelligent networking services associated with Layer 3 can be combined with the cost-effective,
high-capacity services provided by Layer 2 in both LANs and WANs.
Evolution of Layer 2 and Layer 3 Services
Layer 2, also known as the data link layer, operates within a specific LAN or WAN segment. In the
last two years, LANs have been revolutionized by the exploding use of switching at Layer 2.
Companies are replacing hubs with switches at a quick pace. LAN switches provide performance
enhancements for new and existing data networking applications by increasing bandwidth and
throughput for workgroups and local servers.
Layer 3, also known as the network layer, operates between and across segments. Protocols such as
Internet Protocol (IP), Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), and AppleTalk's Datagram Delivery
Protocol (DDP) operate at Layer 3. In the wide area, Layer 3 networking allows businesses to build
global data networks. As an example, the global Internet is based on Layer 3 technology.
Layer 3 networking, implemented with routing, interconnects the switched workgroups and provides
services such as security, quality-of-service (QoS) options, and traffic management. Routing provides
the control needed to build functional, scalable networks.
Traditionally, Layer 2 switching has been provided by LAN switches, and Layer 3 networking has
been provided by routers. Increasingly, these two networking functions are integrated into common
platforms. There will still be a wide range of platforms providing different performance and capacity
ranges for each networking function, but users will gain fundamental benefits from integration of the
layers. Users will be able to reduce the number of networking devices that need to be purchased,
installed, supported, and serviced. In addition, users will be able to efficiently apply Layer 3 services,
such as security and QoS capabilities, to specific individual users and applications.
Mirroring the integration of Layer 3 networking technology into LAN switching devices, WAN
switching equipment likely will increasingly incorporate Layer 3 networking capabilities. As
traditional Layer 3 routers gain support for higher capacity and bandwidth, the integration of Layer 2
technologies will enable routers to achieve optimum levels of performance, port density, and cost
effectiveness.
The following diagram shows how Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching can be used to facilitate
communications between Client X and Server Y, with or without routing.

When Do You Use Layer 2 or Layer 3 Functionality?
The decision to use Layer 2 or Layer 3 functionality in a networkdesign depends on what problems
you are trying to solve for your customer. These problems can be any of the following:
Media problems
●
Protocol problems●
The need to transport large payloads
Media Problems
Media problems occur when too many devices contend for access to a LAN segment, causing
an excessive number of collisions on Ethernet networks and long waits for the token on Token
Ring or FDDI networks. The level of contention can be estimated by examining network
utilization and, in the case of Ethernet, the collision rate. Media contention problems are
obvious from complaints from users about slow response time and difficulties accessing
services.
Protocol Problems
Problems are caused by protocols that do not scale well. For example, some protocols send too
many broadcasts. The number of broadcasts becomes excessive when there are too many clients
looking for services, too many servers announcing services, and too many bridge protocol data
unit (BPDU) frames. Protocol problems occur when customers try to use protocols that were
designed for small workgroups that do not scale with the business.
Protocol problems can result from:
Network-layer addressing issues including running out of addresses
❍
The requirement to use variable-length subnet masks❍
The need for physically discontiguous subnets❍
The need for a private address space❍
Need to Transport Large Payloads
The need to transport large payloads, such as multicast video, can require much more
bandwidth than is available on a customer's network or backbone. Multicast video will need
more bandwidth than standard data. Multicast video may also require support for low and
predictable latency.
●
A Small- to Medium-Sized Business Solutions Framework
To help reduce the complexity associated with identifying and analyzing customer problems, and
designing solutions, Cisco has developed a basic framework into which most customer problems fit.
The small- to medium-sized business solutions framework is represented as a triangle, as shown as
follows:
CCDS- An Introduction
http://wonderinfo.net/certroom/Cisco/DCN_ebook/data/nwdesign/design.htm (3 of 5) [4/18/2000 1:50:19 AM]
Use the following simple rules when designing solutions to customer problems:
If the problems involve media contention, use LAN switching.
●
If the problems are protocol related, for example, excessive number of broadcasts, use routing.●
If the customer needs to transport payloads that require high bandwidth, use Fast Ethernet
switching. In large networks where high bandwidth and predictable low latency are required,
consider ATM.
●
Job Aids
Throughout this course, you will find job aids such as procedures, charts, and checklists. The job aids
will help you design scalable solutions that maximize your customer's satisfaction. Review the job
aids quickly, keeping an eye open for procedures, charts, and checklists that will help you do your
work. The job aids:
Provide steps for designing internetworks.
●
Document scalability constraints that affect internetwork designs.●
