I would advise tracing the diagram they give you (quick 'n' easy for those
of us who can't draw!) and then putting everything you want/need on there.
L1 is important here only from a visualization standpoint. There won't be
any L1 faults to worry about or recabling to do. but sometimes the fact
that a router plugs IN to Cat1 yet shares an Ip subnet with Cat4 seems to
vex some people. :) So do whatever is necessary, just do it quickly!
I'm a big fan of the L3 diagrams though because I always like more details
that what seems to be supplied. Again, no points so make it fast, but put
whatever you need to make your brain work the most efficiently! If you gain
speed in NOT rethinking things, you had definitely done well and not wasted
your time!

Subject: Diagrams in the lab
Hi group,
I'm looking for some tips on diagrams in the lab.
How do you do your diagrams in the lab?
Do you redraw them all and make your own notes? eg. note where you are
having to do redistribution, and where you are sending summaries etc.
Do you draw a physical layer diagram, in particular for the switching
topology?
For real networks that I work on for customers, I do extensive diagrams of
physical, layer 2, and layer 3 topology, but these take a lot of time, which
of course they get charged for :) I will often have more than 1 layer in
each diagram but rarely all 3 layers since it gets too messy. I won't have
the luxury of time (or charging someone for my time!) in the lab so I'm
wondering how best to do it to give me all the info I need quickly.
Cheers,
Patrick
