Yeh; one other thing - you list a separate management network as an optional - it's not optional! Under no circumstance must you expose the managemnt IPs of switches or the servers to the internet; they are, on average, about as secure as a drunk politician. Use a separate management net, make sure it's only securly accessed.

They mention plugging monitors in several times. I think I've only done that once in the last couple of years, when a firmware upgrade failed and reset the management interface IP.

yep this. we just turned off management
