What I do is I have a diagram of the physical topology, then when I take a
technology lab, I look at the physical topology and then create trunks
between the switches, SVI's and what ever needs to be done to get full
reachability. Then say its a OSPF lab, I can then practice OSPF. Its pretty
quick to set up and you can use it for more then one tech lab.
