I've worked on refining and speeding up my diagrams, and I've got it down to
1.25 pages and about 30 minutes. The .25 pages is selected L1, and the rest
of that page goes to notes, or the remedial math I seem to always mess up if I
don't show my work. The second page contains everything L3. I used to draw a
different diagram for everything, but that was a huge timesink. After buying
colored pencils I can trace the diagram and give a different color to:
- Routing Prots - rip, ospf, eigrp, bgp
- multicast
- ipv6
And just scribble out where things like where redist is going on or where I
need to have BGP force some community-tagged routes or whatever. The result
is a mess, but very much usable. I doubt they'll let you take it home and
frame it if you pass, so not much point in worrying about aesthetics.
With a few exceptions, secrecy is deeply incompatible with democracy and with
science.
