Key capabilities of Auvik’s network diagram tool
Auvik’s network diagram tool delivers powerful capabilities that transform how you visualize, maintain, and share your network topology. Below are the key use cases that demonstrate how Auvik solves common network documentation challenges while providing practical, time-saving solutions for IT professionals.
Automatically generate accurate network diagrams
Creating accurate network diagrams manually is time-consuming and error-prone, frequently resulting in outdated documentation that does not reflect the actual topology of your network. Auvik’s automated network diagram tool discovers your entire network infrastructure within minutes of deployment.
When you deploy Auvik, the network diagram software automatically pulls data from protocols like SNMP, CDP, LLDP, and ARP tables to build comprehensive topology maps showing exactly how your devices connect. You can immediately see routers, switches, firewalls, access points, and endpoints mapped with their precise relationships and connections. The tool creates multi-layer topology maps and aggregates device stacks to simplify complex environments while preserving critical connectivity data.

Automated network diagram updates
Network environments change constantly, but keeping documentation current through manual updates is virtually impossible, so you end up with diagrams that quickly become obsolete. Auvik’s network topology diagram tool constantly monitors your infrastructure and automatically updates your diagrams in real-time.
When you add a new switch, reconfigure VLANs, or relocate network equipment, Auvik instantly detects these changes and updates your network diagram. Auvik’s network diagram tool also monitors modifications to IP addresses, interface configurations, and connectivity relationships, ensuring that your documentation always represents the actual state of your network. The tool highlights recent changes directly on the diagram and retains historical topology data for you to replay previous network states.

Granular detail and customization of your network topology diagrams
Standard network diagrams often lack the level of detail necessary for effective troubleshooting or overwhelm you with information that obscures what’s important. Auvik’s network diagram tool allows you to drill down into specific aspects of your network with precise control over what you see.
With Auvik, you can filter the view by device type, connection type, or network segment. You can also toggle between physical (Layer 1), switching (Layer 2), and routing (Layer 3) views with a single click to understand different aspects of your network. The diagram automatically adjusts to highlight the elements you’re examining so you can either trace connections across complex infrastructures or zoom in on a specific network segment. Advanced customization allows you to collapse sections of the map or manually reposition devices without altering discovery data.

What is a network diagram?
A network diagram visually maps all the devices on your network and how they connect, giving you an overview of your infrastructure’s layout. Network diagrams help you efficiently navigate systems, identify risks, and communicate with stakeholders.
What does network diagram software do?
Network diagram software automatically discovers all devices on your network, maps the connections between them, and generates detailed topology documentation and visualizations. The software monitors your network 24/7, updating diagrams in real-time when changes occur, saving you from manually documenting infrastructure.
How do network diagrams work with Auvik’s network topology mapping software?
Auvik pulls data directly from your network to build multi-layer topology maps showing exactly how devices connect; it aggregates complex environments while preserving critical details. Auvik allows complete customization of network diagrams so you can focus on precisely what you need to see for troubleshooting, audits, or presentations to executives. The software also exports diagrams in various formats so you can easily share visualizations tailored to specific stakeholders.
How to create a network diagram with Auvik’s topology mapper?
Deploy Auvik’s collector and, within minutes, the network diagram tool automatically discovers your network’s infrastructure, mapping all devices and their connections. It pulls protocols such as SNMP and CDP to diagram routers, switches, firewalls, and endpoints, aggregating complex device relationships into multi-layer topology maps that show the physical, switching, and routing architecture.
What are the various visualization formats offered by Auvik’s network diagram software?
With one click, Auvik lets you capture any customized topology view and export it as a PNG, PDF, SVG, or Visio document. These diagram exports preserve all visible details – device data, connections, highlighted elements, and applied filters. You can toggle between physical, switching, and routing views of your infrastructure. Advanced customizations allow collapsing or repositioning sections without losing underlying data.
Can I customize my network diagrams in Auvik?
You can fully customize your network diagrams in Auvik using intuitive filtering options to focus on specific devices, connections, or network segments. You can also toggle between physical, switching, and routing views, collapse sections of the diagram, reposition devices, and highlight elements you are investigating.
Can I share network diagrams with other team members?
Auvik makes it easy to export and share network diagrams with your team in customizable PNG, PDF, SVG, or Visio formats. These diagram exports preserve all visible details from your tailored network topology views, including device data, connections, and applied filters.
How frequently do network diagrams update in Auvik?
Auvik network diagrams update in real time as changes occur across your infrastructure, instantly incorporating additions, removals, or configuration changes to devices, connections, VLANs, and more. Historical topology data is also preserved, enabling you to replay previous network states whenever needed.
