Categorizing by VLAN or type of traffic makes some sense. E.g., yellow is DMZ, blue is main LAN, green is SAN, etc. Using a rainbow spread to each rack makes some sense. Makes it easier to tell cables apart when you're hunting for or tracing a particular cable. There are some standards for cable sheath color coding, but the ones I'm aware of are all facility-wide in scope. Most of your in-datacenter cabling would be the same color under such schemes. So I wouldn't call those helpful for this. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
