Using switches between ISP and Main Router
Either putting a dedicated switch in place, or creating VLANs on your LAN switch to isolated the ISP traffic is fine. The former is called a “DMZ switch” and the latter is called a “Core

Core switches and edge switches are two essential components that play distinct roles in the functioning of a network. This article explores what they are and how they differ.
My colleague argued that internet connections should not be terminated on the core switches or internal access switches but rather directly on the firewall or using dedicated external WAN switches.
There is ospf routing on all cores and distribution switches connecting to cores as well as L2/L3 traffic from other sites. Is this acceptable and what are the security concerns?
Comprehensive guide to Core, Distribution, and Access Switches. Roles in the network and important parameters explained.
Connecting an ISP directly to switches is highly debated but has become common and can be done safely. Although my article on this subject references Palo Alto firewalls, the concept is the same.
What is a Core Switch? It is a powerful backbone switch in the center of the network core layer, which centralizes multiple aggregation switches to the core and implements LAN routing. The
DR Core Switches have the Gateways for VLAN20 with HSRP. vPC Peer-Gateway command is configured on DC and DR Core switches. There are two ISP links between DC and DR

Configure multiple A records for multiple public IPs (over ISP1 and ISP2) and multiple MX records with different priority. If MX1 cannot be reached, email servers will try MX2, etc.
A core switch is a backbone device, a switch that is central to your network''s successful operation. You use it to connect to servers, your Internet service provider (ISP) via a router, and to aggregate all
