Join David Rivers for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating a rack diagram, part of Visio 2007 Essential Training.
Continuing on the theme of diagramming or mapping out computer equipments, we…are going to look at a Rack Diagram next and they are kind of cool too.…So let's go up to our New Button drop-down here and from the Network group or…Category, we are going to come down to Rack Diagram and we are going to start…with the blank page and we are going to have some different stencils here…than we are used to seeing as we were creating network diagrams in the previous lessons.…Here you can see Rack-mounted Equipment, so not only the Servers and Tape Drives…and Routers and Bridges and so on, that would go on a rack but we have got a…rack in our Cabinet as well.…
So obviously these two are pretty much the same, a cabinet you would be able…to close up, as the rack just sits out there in the open and probably a…computer room of some kind.…We have Network Room Elements as well so this might go in your computer room…like Table and Chair, might want to show Doors and Windows.…We have got Free Standing equipment like Laptops and Monitors and Printers…
