Hello guys and gals,

First, I apologize that this isn't directly related to cakePHP.
However, since this is really the only development community I
interact with, I hope that you can overlook my off-topic post. :P

I'm currently working on a web application, using my favorite
framework, that will help me manage user information, computers,
hardware, software licenses, etc. So far I'm happy with the way things
are looking with the exception of how computers and network devices
are related.

Here is what I have:

A HABTM relationship between computers and network_devices. I've done
this since some of the servers I managed have multiple nics and are
plugged into more than one switch, router, and/or firewall solution.
Using scaffold I see that this is what I'm wanting. Looks great. Well,
almost great.

The problem with what I have:

However here is the problem: port assignment. I'd like to be able to
report that server-a is plugged into switch-a port 3. I've currently
got a port field in my computers table which allows one port but no
relation to which switch the port belongs to.

Does anyone have any ideas for an elegant solution to this problem?

Thanks.
