Hello Navaneethan. It is possible to make a network connection from a device to another device outside the room using the network management connection wizard. This is not the click and drag network connection tool you use in the rack editor.
Before you start this process make sure the destination room is opened in your DCO client. The network connection wizard will look at opened rooms.
First select the Network overlay, and then the network management pane (see below screenshot). Then select your rack device/server. You should see the network ports for the server/device in the network management window (my screenshot below displays two server network ports).
Right click on the appropriate network port entry and choose "edit route".
A popup should appear which asking whether you want to connect "inside of this rack" or "outside of this rack". Choose outside. You should then see a list of potential destinations including the other room. Click through the list of destinations to get to the rack and the switch in the remote room.
Regards
Greg Sterling

Hi Greg Sterling,
Thanks for the tip.
Do you know however if we can graphically display the network route between two rooms ?
The best I managed to get is this :
Thanks,
