Network and security solution

Document the network people depend on.Including the paths that fail over.

Map devices, zones, secure access, protocols, failover, and observability with the detail engineers need and the clarity reviewers expect.

Topology with engineering meaning

See connectivity, security intent, and resilience together.

A useful network diagram shows more than devices. Struct keeps addressing, protocols, zones, ownership, controls, and operating assumptions in the same review context.

Show the real topology

Model routers, switches, gateways, subnets, wireless links, endpoints, load balancers, and observability across physical and cloud networks.

  • Devices, links, and subnets
  • Addressing and ownership metadata
  • Primary and failover paths

Make trust visible

Draw security zones, remote access, inspection points, encrypted paths, and policy boundaries so control intent can be reviewed.

  • Trust and segmentation boundaries
  • IPsec and secure-access relationships
  • Linked security specifications

Use clear protocol semantics

Distinguish physical Ethernet, BGP peering, VRRP failover, encrypted tunnels, application flows, and asynchronous relationships.

  • Cited connector presets
  • Labels and conformance context
  • Traceable operational assumptions

Network work in Struct

Make zones, protocols, direction, and degraded paths explicit.

Use network-specific symbols and connector semantics, then attach policy, risk, and operating decisions to the exact route they govern.

  • 04Reviewable controlsLink control requirements and Review threads to the relevant zone, asset, or connection.

Review the path

Move from topology to a design the team can defend.

Give network, cloud, application, and security teams a shared place to resolve gaps before they become incidents.

01

Define zones and critical assets

Identify trust boundaries, external dependencies, sensitive systems, and administrative paths.

02

Trace normal and degraded traffic

Show protocols, direction, inspection, failover, and observability for important flows.

03

Attach requirements and controls

Link policy, risk decisions, runbooks, and acceptance criteria to affected nodes and routes.

04

Keep review evidence current

Version the design, share controlled reviews, and preserve the rationale beside the topology.
