infrastuctour
documentation tasks
1. keeping track of configurations (maintaining screenshots router interfaces, what is set on the router, what on the server?)
2. mapping the networks around the server, a visualization task (who is the internet provider, how is it connected to the wider internet? who/what else is on that lan? what are the UP/DOWN speeds? what are the server's local and external ip-addresses)
3. mapping of dependencies, a visualization task (who is the internet provider, who pays for the internet, who has access to the router, who is sharing the network, whom did you have to ask permission?)
4. collect stories/anecdotes about the server and the hosting situation (how difficult was it to get access, what is the situation like? what is the server called? what is the network called?)
5. maintaining the jargon file up to date throughout the day
