Device Icon Scheme
Introduction
In order to provide some sort of consistency while not limiting expanding device support, I've come up with this icons scheme. It may not be 100% compatible with the original intention of the producer, but it can cover most of the device types out there.
Colors
The top-level distinction (vendor) is made with the main color:
| Vendor | Color |
|---|---|
| Cisco | blue |
| HP | green |
| Avaya | orange |
| Extreme | purple |
| Alcatel-Lucent | yellow |
| Brocade | red |
| Other | black |
Bold charactar is substituted below for the x. In addition some icons use shades (d=dark,n=normal,p=pale) to differentiate between device size:
