Hi all,

sorry for the off-topic question. Suggestions for a better place to ask
are welcome.

Are you aware of any "standard" network symbology? By this I mean having
a graphical symbol for each network component, in the same spirit of the
symbols of the various electronics components.

If you look at RFCs and IDs each uses its own symbology to mean node,
router, host, link, tunnel and so on.

I would be interested in both ASCII art and real graphical symbols.

thanks
marco
