Network mapping is the process of visually representing the relationships between network devices. This can be done manually, but it is often more efficient to use a network mapping tool. Network mapping tools can help you to identify network vulnerabilities, plan network upgrades, and troubleshoot network problems.
Why Learn Network Mapping?
There are many reasons to learn network mapping. Some of the most common reasons include:
-
To identify network vulnerabilities. Network mapping can help you to identify network vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers. This information can be used to take steps to mitigate these vulnerabilities and protect your network from attack.
-
To plan network upgrades. Network mapping can help you to plan network upgrades by providing you with a clear understanding of the current network infrastructure. This information can be used to identify bottlenecks and other areas that need to be upgraded.
-
To troubleshoot network problems. Network mapping can help you to troubleshoot network problems by providing you with a visual representation of the network. This information can be used to identify the source of the problem and take steps to resolve it.
