Network diagrams provide a visual representation of network traffic. Network diagrams aid in the tracing of data flow problems.
Network diagrams help managers plan for network growth coinciding with school system expansion.
In addition network diagrams are a valuable tool for assessing infrastructure needs and weaknesses thereby maximizing technology funds. Network infrastructure constantly changes and expands. Therefore diagrams should also be in a fluid format to represent the ever changing environment.
