About This Architecture

Dual-site server room network with redundant Checkpoint and Fortigate firewalls protecting Cisco Nexus switch pairs at each location. Servers connect via trunk links to dual Cisco Nexus switches for high availability, while Checkpoint FW1 and FW2 provide perimeter security with Fortigate backbone appliances handling inter-site routing. The architecture demonstrates defense-in-depth with firewall-to-switch-to-server segmentation across Operasyon Bina and Idari Bina system rooms. Network engineers can fork this diagram to customize firewall policies, adjust trunk configurations, or model failover scenarios. This topology supports zero-downtime maintenance and geographic redundancy for mission-critical workloads.

How do you design a redundant multi-site network with firewalls and switches for high availability?

This diagram shows a dual-site topology where Checkpoint FW1 and FW2 provide perimeter security, Fortigate backbone appliances route inter-site traffic, and dual Cisco Nexus switches at each location ensure server connectivity without single points of failure. Servers connect to both Nexus switches via trunk links, enabling seamless failover and load balancing across the Operasyon Bina and Idari B
