Network Design Programs?

[Denney]

Does anyone know of any network design programs? I need one to draw up our new network at Mantra Software Australia.

I want to be able to incorporate the computers, switches, KVM switches, hubs, printers, scanners, cameras etc. into a diagram that I can use to show how our network is wired.

I have searched but cannot seem to find anything suitable. Only program that I can find is Visio by Microsoft.

Anyone have any ideas?

We use M$ Visio 2003 in our company and it seems to do the above without to much of a hassle and you can get templates that refer to specific company products.

Hope that helps
