i really really really wish we had something standard like CDP for the whole industry, so that an ethernet card can tell me what the name and port number and vlan of the managed switch its connected to is. the fact that we can send a gigabyte per second through the port (yes i have a 10gbit lan don't @ me) but don't know which fucking port it's plugged in to without crawling on the floor and tracing cables is.... insane
