hi,
1) First question, What the best Backbone & layer 2 switch (must support Trunking) i'll buy on this scenario
Backbone Switch(support ACL)locate at Server room
Layer 2 Switch (support Vlan)use for every floor Switch.
For Example for backbone, we configure 6 Vlan with different IP address.
For each Floor we configure Different Vlan Example
first Floor on ly have 2 Vlan ( Vlan 1 and Vlan 3).
2nd Floor only 3 Vlan ( Vlan 1 3 and 6).
and same other....which configure different Vlan.
2 ) Second question, is there a way that we can configure Trunk Vlan to make backbone and layer 2 switch communicate because each Floor only have one cat6 cable to connect to backbone switch..?
3) Can we assign Ip address of each Vlan to become a gateway for each pc assign on the Vlan..?
Thanks in advance

HI, [Pls Rate if HELPS]
Backbone Switch:
CISCO Cat 4000 Series Switches
L2 Switches:
CISCO 2950 Switches
Eg: Trunk Scenario
Floor I port 1/24 (trunk) ==> Server Room
Foor III port 1/24 (trunk) ==> Server Room
Trunk Port:
>> Will carry all VLAN Traffic to the Server Room Backbone Switch
Eg: VLAN as Gateway Scenario
VLAN2: 10.1.0.0 (Subnet)
Gw: 10.1.0.1
VLAN3: 10.2.0.0 (Subnet)
Gw: 10.2.0.1
The 1st IP Address of each VLAN Subnet can be used as VLAN Router IP and same as GW for CLients.
Hope this Helps

HI, [Pls Rate if HELPS]
Go-ahead and pls see it supports all your Backbone Requirements as planned.
Organization Size / Density: Medium-Sized means it is recommended.
Refer link below for CISCO Cat 3560 Data Sheet:
