it meets the customer’s requirements for wired network upgrade. By combining the switches in each Building 2 closet as a Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) fabric, the architect can reduce the number of logical devices within the network, simplifying management and reducing complexity, aligning with the goal of flattening architecture. Establishing two 10 GbE connections to the core per fabric ensures redundancy and resilience, maintaining connectivity even if one link fails, without necessitating additional cabling. This also provides sufficient bandwidth and scalability for the network traffic.

The other options are incorrect because:

A. Using two additional 2930F switches to act as an aggregation layer for Building 2 adds another layer of devices and complexity to the network, contradicting the goal of flattening architecture. It also requires additional cabling and ports to connect the switches to the core and the access layer.

B. Connecting each Building 2 switch directly to the core on a single fiber strand through the use of SFP±SR transceivers does not provide redundancy and resilience, as one link failure would disconnect the switch from the core. It also limits the bandwidth and scalability of the network, as each switch would have only one 10 GbE connection to the core.

D. Extending additional fiber between the buildings so that each Building 2 switch can have a direct 10 GbE connection to the core requires recabling, which the customer wants to avoid. It also increases the cost and complexity of the network, as more fiber strands and ports would be needed.
