I’ve found PowerPoint amazingly versatile for network design. It’s primary advantage over dedicated tools like Visio is that you can mix in photos, talking points, and migration checklists. Plus everyone can read and edit PowerPoint.
You can use the stencils and icons from many graphics libraries. No, it won’t redraw lines as you drag objects (at least not well), but I find the other advantages persuasive. -mel via cell On Sep 1, 2021, at 12:13 PM, Michael Hallgren <m...@xalto.net> wrote: TikZ ? mh ________________________________ De : Etienne-Victor Depasquale via NANOG <nanog@nanog.org> Envoyé : mercredi 1 septembre 2021 20:30 À : NANOG Objet : Telecommunications network drafting software Hello folks, Would you care to share some pointers to drafting software which you use to draw up architectural drafts (for telecoms networks, including cable operators' networks) ? I've found Visio to be a bit weak in this respect, even after adding third party stencils. One product I'm exploring is ConceptDraw's "diagram" product, but I'd like to hear about anything you can share with me. Cheers, Etienne -- Ing.
