Scenario: Private School in a church, with ambiguous security in the summer months.
I get the call at the beginning of school year that the internet is down for the classroom.
It is all behind a filtering proxy server, I can log into it it but things are a bit slow.
I try a few things but have to go over there. I find that someone has messed with the cabling trying to get past the filter, and have looped a couple of 16 port dumb switches together with no less than 3 patch cables!
Needless to say there was a bit of chatter on the LAN
