I am on the technology committee of the college I attended (Whitman) and they currently have a 200 mbit/sec via gigE link for a campus of just under 2000 and every building has at least 1X gigE into their backbone. They are in a rural area (walla walla, wa) but they don't generally have more than 100 or 150 mbit/sec of usage, fitting nicely in the below recommendations. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Loftis [mailto:mloftis () wgops com] Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 8:48 AM To: Sean Donelan Cc: nanog Subject: Re: Current trends in capacity planning and oversubscription On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 10:26 PM, Sean Donelan <sean () donelan com> wrote:
While the answer is always it depends, I was wondering what the current rules of thumb university network engineers are using for capacity planning and oversubscription for resnets and admin networks? For K-12, SETDA (http://www.setda.org/web/guest/2020/broadband) is recommending: - An external Internet connection to the Internet Service Provider of at least 100 Mbps per 1,000 students/staff - Internal wide area network connections from the district to each school and between schools of at least 1 Gbps per 1,000 students/staff How does that compare with university and enterprise network rules of thumb?
