For a network cable connecting a hub and an agent or terminal, the label on the agent or
terminal end should contain the serial number of the network interface. The definitions
of the cabinet number and chassis number are the same as those described in Table 5-24.
If the hub is a standalone device without a cabinet or chassis, the label should contain
specific location information that identifies the hub.
The serial number on the hub, the network interface number of the agent or terminal, and the
location of the standalone device should be specified according to actual connections.
