To detect all failures, hardware upgrades, and software updates, system administrator to know where all the network devices are located and how they are connected to the network, so that in time his duties have high quality. That is why any company working in the system administrator and network diagrams network topology discovery process starts with the creation. A schematic representation of the network topology, network system, including its nodes and connecting lines. Its components and their connections with each other: Network Topology diagram view of an IT manager allows all network infrastructure.
Today, it is almost impossible that the standard “star”, “ring”, “bus”, or “line” to get network topologies. Typically, large companies in the local network so complex and difficult that network map building turns into a real problem. Are used for network topology discovery are two ways:
1. You manually across the wire connections can track all devices and then manually draw a picture on paper. It is a regular and dust takes a lot of work and time, especially if the company occupies a floor or the entire building.
2. The second method is much easier and faster. You can discover network topology with special software. This process only takes three simple steps:
1) First, the system administrator topology discovery software is installed on your computer.
2) Secondly, the program in order to scan the whole network will detect all the devices in the network. If there are switches that support SNMP protocol, the program will automatically find and all connections will be able to draw.
3) The final step manual drawing of the connection, if the topology discovery software to automatically due to some reasons it did not manage to.
After all these steps are finished, the system administrator on your computer to the company network diagram. Symbol or can be changed in order to be placed in the room and offices and orientation process easier for IT managers, if some network devices or failure occurs.
