    I would suggest starting with:

    Switch and server IPs
    Logical map of the network cabling
    Physical map of the network (or at least an indication where your wall sockets are cabled back to etc)
    Number of systems (for licencing reasons etc.)

    Anybody got some pro forma sheets that they use? That would be a great help.

    Many many years ago Novell had a handbook that you used to document your system.
