Hi all,

Lucidchart is another good option.

Hi James and all
Whenever I had to use software to design networks (usually at parties), I resorted to dumb but effective tools like Inspiration (the mind-mapping tool) and Powerpoint. Both allowed easy linking of objects. I didn't find the need for anything more sophisticated.

I remember Dia<http://dia-installer.de/> was free, good, and easy. Still probably is.

But if you were a fussy fancy-pants, I guess you'd use Visio, but it always seemed like overkill for simple diagrams.
And it's expensive if you don't get MS Office for free.
Which I don't any more.
Which is why I now use the delightful and free LibreOffice. 'I can't believe it's not Office™'

Hi everyone

Currently in the process of planning my unit on networks for next term, wondering what gems you all might have in terms of network design tools and YouTube videos.

Kind regards
