Shangri-La’s Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa is a five-star luxury resort hotel located on the scenic Batu Feringgi Beach in Penang, Malaysia . The resort has two main buildings, the 189- room Garden Wing and the 115-room Rasa Wing, with an additional 11 private spa villas . Over the years, the resort had installed three separate networks: one for the resort’s operations, one for its point-of-sales system, and one for wider Internet access for guests . As part of a multi-million-dollar renovation, the resort decided to upgrade its network to gigabit speeds and to offer wireless Internet access to its guests . Rather than building three separate networks again, it decided to build one network using virtual local area networks (VLANs) . The resort installed 12 wireless access points, 24 smaller VLAN switches, and 2 larger core VLAN switches .
