I want to use Dia to draw networks with switches and routers and

It is easy to add a line 

      <textbox x1= "0"  y1= "1" x2=  "10" y2 = "5" />

(with appropiate numbers)  to the file    xxx.shape  which defines the
symbol.

 


(May be it would better to prepare a different sheet with same symbols 
(shapes) but all of them with the possibility of identifications.

I am not "near" my computer now; but I beleive there is some 
documentation in a file 
         doc/custom-shapes
 which comes with  dia
