My name is James Price and I provide independent network documentation consulting services, helping MSPs, ICT providers, network engineers and technology businesses turn complex network information into structured, usable and client-ready documentation.
My background combines hands-on experience in ICT and networking with formal study across information technology, design, business and adult education. This combination helps me approach network documentation from both sides: understanding the technical information behind an environment and presenting that information clearly for the people who need to use it.
My approach is practical and methodical. I work with information provided by engineers, technicians, clients and network systems, then use modern tools, including AI and automation where appropriate, to help organise and develop the documentation.
Even with the power of AI, Human review remains an important part of the process, particularly when identifying gaps, resolving inconsistencies and preparing information for operational use or client handover.
Logical Network & Topology Diagrams
High-clarity visual diagrams that translate dense routing, switching, and security configurations into intuitive, scannable maps.
This may include:
• Logical L2/L3 network topology diagrams
• VLAN, subnet, and routing visualisations
• Firewall routing and security zone logic
• Internet (ISP) circuit and failover paths
• Remote access (VPN), cloud, and site-to-site topologies
• Data flow and traffic bottleneck visualisations
• Simplified overview diagrams for non-technical stakeholders
The goal is to give technical teams and stakeholders an instant, accurate view of how data flows across core infrastructure, reducing outage downtime and eliminating reliance on undocumented “tribal knowledge.”

Network Data Schedules & Asset Registries
Structured technical tables and configuration schedules captured during the diagramming process to serve as your single source of truth.
This may include:
• IP address management (IPAM) schedules and subnet tracking
• VLAN schedules and port allocation tables
• Network asset registries (makes, models, serials, and locations)
• MAC address mapping and DHCP reservation lists
• Server, storage, and network-attached peripheral inventories
• Core router/switch configuration records and operational runbooks
By organising the raw data behind your diagrams, you eliminate network blind spots and maintain a reliable reference of what is connected to your network, where it lives, and what it does.
Whether you need to organise an existing environment, document a completed project, review documentation created internally or with AI, or prepare a professional client handover, I can work alongside your technical team to help get the documentation into shape.
