Hi Jared,<br>
<br>
We had a discussion on the list about this a while back - probably
worth reviewing: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://lists.ausnog.net/pipermail/ausnog/2011-September/011189.html">http://lists.ausnog.net/pipermail/ausnog/2011-September/011189.html</a><br>
<br>
In the intervening time, I've rebuilt 90% of the core of a
medium-sized corporate network, and I have to say I would never use
Visio, but would instead use graphviz, either manually specified or
automatically generated from LLDP/CDP info and/or interface
IPs/masks. (I'd probably try the latter if I was starting fresh.)<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Paul<br>
