Re: VLANS designing，Geographical vs functional?

[Maren Purves <m.purves@jach.hawaii.edu>]

By all means functional.

Coming from a site distributed over 3 locations, the most accessible
(office) being 35 miles away form the ones doing the work (telescopes),
you want to have everything you can locate to the (in our case 'office')
local site at the local site (the main server for one of our telescopes
is a virtual machine on a server at the office site).

You may or will need geographical when you access hardware directly
(limitation of line/bus lengths. If you can go over IP this doesn't 
apply - or may depend on your data rate).
