Satit Chula 17F Network – 100G Campus Network Deployment

A high-performance campus network deployment for a 17-story academic building at one of Thailand's most prestigious university-affiliated secondary schools in Bangkok. The project delivers 10–100 Gbps core connectivity for LAN, VoIP, access points, and CCTV systems, reliably serving over 2,000 users daily. Built entirely on MikroTik routing and switching with Multi-Area OSPF, PIM-SM multicast routing, MC-LAG for core-leaf redundancy, hardware Layer 3 offloading, and high availability at both hardware and software levels. Featured in MikroTik Newsletter #131 (January 2026).

Featured in MikroTik Newsletter #131 – January 2026

This project was selected by MikroTik and published in their official monthly newsletter as a flagship example of modern campus networking. The feature highlights the 10–100 Gbps architecture, high-availability design, and cost-efficient all-MikroTik approach. The project was implemented by MikroTik partners NeXTGENiT, SIWAT SYSTEM, and G-Net.

Network Design & Architecture

Lead Network Designer: Designed the complete network architecture including Multi-Area OSPF routing topology, PIM-SM multicast distribution, and MC-LAG redundancy for core-leaf links. Personally configured all switches during deployment, including extensive pre-deployment testing and configuration at the office.

Core Layer

  • • CCR2216 as the high-performance L3 core router
  • • CRS520 / CRS518 as 100G distribution switches
  • • Multi-Area OSPF for scalable routing architecture
  • • PIM-SM for efficient multicast traffic distribution
  • • MC-LAG for core-to-leaf redundancy and failover
  • • Hardware Layer 3 offloading for line-rate performance
  • • Link aggregation for uplink bonding and redundancy

Access Layer

  • • CRS354 / CRS328 PoE switches for APs and IP cameras
  • • CRS326 / CRS312 for data access throughout 17 floors
  • • Unified network for LAN, VoIP, WiFi, and CCTV
  • • Consistent MikroTik platform for single-pane management
  • • All switches personally configured and tested

High Availability & Resilience

Hardware-level HA

Redundant power supplies and hardware failover on core and distribution devices ensure continuous operation even during component failure.

Software-level HA

Protocol-level redundancy through link aggregation and failover routing prevents service disruption during network events.

Link Aggregation (LACP)

Bonded uplinks between each floor and distribution nodes provide both bandwidth multiplication and automatic failover.
