Figure 3.14 High-level view of logical networks
When planning your logical networks, try to stay as simple as possible. You should not
have hundreds of logical networks. You should have fewer that contain different
network sites that reflect the various network configurations within the type of
network that is represented by the logical network. Microsoft has a good blog on
designing logical networks at

The information can be summarized as follows:
1 . Create logical networks to mirror the physical networks that exist.
2 . Create logical networks to define the networks that have specific purposes.
3 . Identify logical networks that need to be isolated and identify the isolation
method.
4 . Determine required network sites, VLANs, PVLANs, and IP pools required for each
logical network and deploy them.
5 . Associate logical networks to host computers.
