One thing I will do if I have some spare time at the colo is wander the ais=
les and see what other folks have done in certain situations. Many people =
put some nice work on display, so, admire it and learn from it. Some of it=
"looks" really nice but can be a pain to work with, too so you have to con=
sider how it would be to have to pull a blade from that switch that looks r=
eally nice at first until you consider having to actually replace anything =
in that network.
