Using the Diagram Editor

Diagrams are created and edited in the Diagram Editor.

There are two methods for creating diagrams. You can create a diagram from previously configured elements or add new elements to the SMC and draw the diagram simultaneously. When you create network elements as you draw the diagram, the elements are added to the SMC configuration with the other elements. If you edit the configured elements (such as an IP address change), the changes are automatically updated in your diagram. The automatic updates to the diagrams reduce the need to update your network documentation.
