A three-server LAN topology with a central 24-port switch distributing connectivity to master, slave, and backup servers. The switch acts as the network backbone, enabling communication between all three servers while providing redundancy through the backup server. This architecture demonstrates a classic failover pattern where the master server handles primary operations, the slave server provides read replication or standby capacity, and the backup server ensures business continuity.

Consider adding a secondary switch for high-availability deployments requiring zero single points of failure.
