When planning a network installation, it is essential to label the opposing
ends of cables and to record where each cable is connected. Doing so will
enable you to easily locate inter-connected devices, isolate faults and
change your topology without need for unnecessary time consumption.
To best manage the physical implementations of your network, follow these
guidelines:
Clearly label the opposing ends of each cable.
◆
Using your building's floor plans, draw a map of the location of all
◆
network-connected equipment. For each piece of equipment, identify
the devices to which it is connected.
Note the length of each cable and the maximum cable length supported
◆
by the switch ports.
For ease of understanding, use a location-based key when assigning
◆
prefixes to your cable labeling.
