Question
Your friend is leasing a brand new building downtown with the intention of subleasing it to various businesses. Each business requires privacy and the comfort of knowing that their network is only exclusively be accessible to themselves. Each businesses also would want to make sure that they can add additional computing equipment to their network without much restriction. Your friend is planning to sublease the building to 4 businesses on the 1st floor and 6 businesses on the 2nd floor. Each tenant will also need access to the Internet.
Explanation / Answer
This kind of 2 floor and individual business VPN(Virtual Private network) is the best option.
If you plan to set-up a VPN network to other offices you need to make sure that your internet provider has provided you with a few things.
1. You need to know and understand what your download and Upload speeds are. The average speeds for DSL are 1.5mbps down and 128kbps up. Your VPN network will suffer with this
upload speed. If your DSL is a business account you can choose higher speeds such as 768kbps both ways or in some cases 1.5mbps both ways or higher.
2. Business accounts also usually gives you static IP addresses in which will make setting up VPN's that much easier.
3. IF you decide to setup a VPN between offices you should have a server at each location and connect servers and not each and every machine accross the VPN.
The server would in store any shared files as well as Database software.
4. Make sure that your servers are connected by a hard line and not wireless.
Outside of that everything else will work out fine.
