Jack,
The spirit of the NDA is that no inforamtion be given to anyone that would
give them an unfair advantage in the test. I don't think that telling you
what to expect in cabling is going to give you an unfair advantage in the
test. So here is my answer.
The serial connections are handled with a patch panel. It will be obvious to
you, when you see it, exactly what is going on.

Subject: Lab cabling
The answer to this question may be in violation of the NDA, so I understand
if it can't be answered, but I was wondering about the cabling setup in the
lab...I understand that there is a patch panel, which I would assume can be
used for your ethernet/tokenring connections, but how are the serial
connections handled? Are there a bunch of cables just sitting in front of
you and you connect the routers directly via serial cables? This is the way
I would figure it works...I guess my real question is are you only
responsible for cabling the patch panel or are there other connections you
need to make? Once again, I'm not looking for somenone to violate the NDA,
but I figure the equipment list is posted and I though that cabling would
sort of fall into the same realm...Any answers would be greatly
appreciated...Jack
