HP3000/iX Network Planning and Configuration Guide

Drawing a Network Map 

A network mapprovides information about the configuration of the
computers on the network and their access to remote computers.  A network
map can be invaluable when troubleshooting.

Whenever you install a new system on your network, be sure you also
update your network map.  If you have not previously created a network
map, create one now and keep it updated whenever you add or delete
computers or interface cards or make cable changes.

In addition to maintaining a network map, you should also record related
system information on one of the network map worksheets, provided later
in this chapter.  You can use the network map worksheet as a guide for
configuration and later as a record of your configuration for both you
and your HP support staff.
