Personally had to do a similar exercise myself so be interested to hear people
thoughts on this.
All our patch panels are a 1 to 1 Relationship so we took the PortXX-ServerRack
and PortXX-CommsRack approach but only because seemed the indendent method.

Subject: [racktables-users] New to Racktables: Patchpanel, Autogenerate ports
Hi,
I just installed RackTables to document our racks :-)
Now I have some questions:
1. How to setup a patchpanel properly?
Problem is that a patchpanel might be connected to another patchpanel
in another rack. My solution is to create every port twice (portXX
and portXX-back) so that I can document these connections properly.
is this the right way?
2. Is AutoPorts the only way to create lots of identical ports?
We have different types of Patchpanels (12 Ports, 24 Ports, fibre and
copper), so do I have to create a separate object in the
dictionary or is there another possibility?
3. fibre patchpanels
is there any porttype which is compatible with all fibre connections
10/100/1000/...-base-fx sc/st/lc/whatever? so I can link these?
