How to Convert Visio Stencils for Use in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

How to Convert Visio Stencils to ConceptDraw libraries
MS Visio provides users with a number of predefined stencils. Standard Visio stencils contain shapes that are basically used to create diagrams. The shapes can range from simple flow chart boxes or lines to more complicated shapes like servers, racks or anything else that needs to be represented in a graphical form. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM supports the possibility to open Visio stencils. With the introduction of Visio 2013 Microsoft has changed the native file format used in earlier versions of Microsoft Visio. Thus, when you are looking for professional tool to open and save in the newer Visio 2013 file format on Mac, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is exactly solution for you. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM file import and export works round-trip with the new Visio VSDX file format and at the same time supports the improved import of VDX file format. To use Visio stencils created with MS Visio 2010 in your diagrams, created with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, follow the steps described in the following article.

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a new powerful concept for decision these problems. SDN proposes to disaggregate the traditional networking stacks that are vertically integrated to customize the network operations for specialized environments and improve network service velocity.
On this example you can see the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) diagram that was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the Computer and Networks Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Local area network (LAN). Computer and Network Examples

Local area network (LAN) diagram
A local area network (LAN) is a devices network that connect with each other in the scope of a home, school, laboratory, or office. Usually, a LAN comprise computers and peripheral devices linked to a local domain server. All network appliances can use a shared printers or disk storage. A local area network serve for many hundreds of users. Typically, LAN includes many wires and cables that demand a previously designed network diagram. They are used by IT professionals to visually document the LANs physical structure and arrangement.
