Capturing my home network on MS Visio

Hi Folks!

I am doing okay! How about you?

Remember, in one of my blogs this month, precisely August 28, 2012 I shared with you list of authentic or valid internet site to shop for information security news. This week, I will be adding to that list because I discovered more. But first, I have to conclude with you on how I was able to capture my wireless network diagram on Microsoft Visio before I share that information.

I launched Microsoft Visio and clicked on CREATE on the right hand pane of the screen. Next, I click on more shapes-network- Network and Peripherals (US units) button on the left hand pane, and started using the tools there to start my diagram. The Network and Peripherals (US units) are symbols used to represent a simple network diagram. So, I picked on two laptop symbol, one mobile phone symbol, one printer symbol, one scanner symbol, one wired phone symbol, one router symbol, one hub/switch symbol, one wireless symbols, and two wireless connection signal symbols, but I could not find Ethernet. So, I typed “Ethernet” on the search screen and it brought all kinds of diagrams that represented an Ethernet and I chose one.

I placed all diagrams in the exact position I wanted them one after another, by just picking and dropping them on the Microsoft Visio create sheet. Next, I started connecting the points I wanted, when I finished I added a background picture, in the end it was a beautiful piece. If you love to have a sneak peek of the diagram: It’s here:

Now, back to the reason for today’s blog, which is, more authentic site revealed. In the event you still intend to see more information security news, find more on the sites I found below. These sites are as authentic as the ones I showed to you four weeks ago.  

I hope I did not bore you today. Till next week when I come your way again.

Be strong and courageous!
