Hi,

I'm newbie to the Dell networking. For the implementation of CCTV system Network, i have designed one topology by using MLAG and VRRP, (Please check the attached diagram). I have some queries related to this. I need active-active Network to achieve redundancy as well as throughput balancing.

1. In layer 3 switch, can i get active-active redundancy by using VRRP?

2. Which spanning tree protocol is ideal for this network?

3. In the Top of the Rack (TOR) Switch, Do i need to use MLAG for throughput balancing?

4. For Access switches when it is stacked using DAC Cable, do i need to do extra configuration since its in MLAG

5. Is there any alternate solution as best practice for this network rather than MLAG?

 

Switch models : Dell N3024 EF-ON and Dell N1524/N1548.
