 +Network documentation is the backbone of any good environment, I use Netbox to document both my virtual network/subnet/vlan space as well as the physical layout of infrastructure. 
 +
 +
 +All vlans, subnets, devices, and IPs are documented here. I have some basics for switch infrastructure in as well so that it can be referenced for network automation.  This is critically important as we talk about the next portion. **//Automation//**

 +Netbox is my network source-of-truth, what this means is application that I pull facts from it in Ansible playbooks to help configure my switches/equipment/VMs. It is critically important that data in Netbox is correct or the automation will apply borked configurations.
