Feb 3, 2023 at 15:32 comment added The Footsie We have a lot of stacks, lets say 80, 79 of them go 1,2,3,4,5,6. We have one stack that goes 1,2,6,4,5,3. The network team are not the only team responsible for patching so the significance of a sign highlighting this discrepancy would be lost on them. Why train people to remember this discrepancy when I could just renumber the switches, I'm just asking if there are any issues with my plan.

Feb 3, 2023 at 13:17 comment added Ron Maupin "This is causing confusion; when an engineer physically plugs a port into switch 3 they have to remember to configure interface Gi6/0/x instead of G3/0/x." Are the labels wrong, or can the tech not read?
