We also go over the various tools used to document the network as well as the different types of diagrams. We’ll even discuss how you can get started and learn how to document your network for free – no need for expensive tools to make a basic network diagram.

I’ve been listening to the podcast a couple of months, and though this comment is several weeks late, I wanted to share this excellent tool that we have used for a few years. Does a great job with scanning switches and keeping up with where endpoints and devices are connected. Check it out. Just needs a linux host, or I think there is a docker container version.
