planning rendundancy setting

hi all, now i'm design a network like this :

2 switch Catalyst 6500

||

4 switch Catalyst 4000 (redundant)

||

Catalyst 2950 (24 port) (with redundant connection), each switch has 2 Connection from two different Catalyst 4000.

||

Personal Computer

with this network, i need to setup Vlan, maybe more than one in each cat2950.

there have problems with this setting? and if number of nodes grows rapidly, can i make hops/new connection (cat2950 to cat2950) but still provide maximum Cat5e bandwith for each user.

thank's.

It looks like there's enough redundency in your physical design and I don't see a problem w/ it.

It's the logical topology that you need to watch out for (ether-channel vs single link, RSTP vs PVST, etc)

What did you mean by "can i make hops/new connection (cat2950 to cat2950) "??

You wanna daisy-chain 2950s together? I'd avoid it.
