    ILoveMySteaks ... is thinking.

    The overall layout or design of the network.

    Where stuff is, like routers, switches, servers, workstations, punch panels, workgroup switches, etc. A good one also gives you all the IP Addys, workstation specs, workstation software, NIC speeds, switch/router speeds, etc. For example, if you're connected to a swerver that is on a 1GB NIC but your workstation is going through a 10/100 switch, it's not too efficient :-)

    MS has a product that goes out, scans the whole network and builds one for you, it's a pain to use though. I use VISIO for all that stuff, it is FANTASTIC!!
