netTerrain's 'Circuit Layout Record' shows you all the information you need to know for the circuit, in one printable page and without the need to navigate an array of different diagrams.

In netTerrain, links are not just black lines connecting two nodes: they can have styles, colors, thicknesses, can include bend points, and can also be arranged nicely when you have several links connecting the same endpoints.

netTerrain picks the optimal paths for you, selects default cables and strands, and even patches up the circuit along the way.

When creating a new circuit in netTerrain, who decides which path it should take and how is that accomplished? There are basically three ways to define a path for a circuit — with decreasing levels of automation. 

With inside plant cabling, there is some movement — but you know where the patch panels are and how they’re connected (not always the case, of course, but typically you’re not cutting an Ethernet cable in half and then splicing the inner strands together). With fiber cabling, however, this can happen often.
