Lay each network out in a linear path for clarity. Use an END symbol
to show the two physical ends of each network section. Make four
entries to identify each node device. Use the following legend:
Entry Number Entry Content Meaning
First Node number The device’s address on the network
Second Device type The device’s model number
Third Application The title of the device’s application or use
Fourth Location The device’s site location in your facility
Use additional entries as needed to further identify each node in your
application.
