Frequently Asked Questions
What is network capacity planning?
Capacity planning forecasts future bandwidth, device and storage needs from current usage and growth trends. It helps avoid outages and rushed purchases.
Why is network documentation important?
Accurate diagrams, addressing records and configuration notes speed up troubleshooting, audits and incident response. Undocumented networks hide risks and slow recovery.
What are baseline metrics?
Baselines record normal performance, such as utilisation and latency, so deviations stand out. This free beginner Codelivly room shows how to collect them and use them for planning.
