What type of document would a network administrator likely provide to a technician for a network upgrade detailing switchports?

A physical network diagram is the appropriate document for a network administrator to provide for detailing switchports during a network upgrade. This type of diagram represents the actual hardware layout of the network, including all physical components such as switches, routers, and the connections between them. It shows where devices are located and how they are interconnected, which is crucial for technicians to understand physical switchport configurations and connections.

This visual representation allows technicians to easily identify which ports on the switches are available for new connections, how they are interconnected with other devices, and any specific configurations that might be relevant to the upgrade process. This understanding is essential for effectively executing the network upgrade, ensuring that connectivity and throughput are maintained according to the network design.

In contrast, while a process diagram outlines the steps involved in a particular procedure, a fiber backbone diagram focuses specifically on the layout of fiber-optic cables used to connect different parts of the network, and a logical topology diagram represents the conceptual layout and the paths data can take through the network rather than the physical connections. None of these options provide the detail on physical switch ports and their configurations essential for a technician during an upgrade.
