ABOUT

About these examples.

Whether you’re setting up a UDM Pro, a stack of UniFi switches, or access points for a segmented smart home, you’ll find inspiration here. Each diagram illustrates how to map physical topology and VLAN boundaries clearly.

New to network diagrams? Our visual editor makes it easy — just drag and drop UniFi icons, label VLANs, and connect cables. No drawing skills needed.

HOW TO

Make one yourself.

  1. 1

    Choose a network diagram template or start blank

    Pick a home network example similar to yours, or begin with an empty canvas in the diagram maker.

  2. 2

    Add UniFi devices and label them

    Drag in icons for your router, switches, access points, and clients. Name them for easy identification.

  3. 3

    Define VLANs and subnet boundaries

    Draw colored containers or use callouts to show VLAN IDs and associated subnets (e.g., VLAN 10 – Main, VLAN 20 – IoT).

  4. 4

    Connect devices with cables and logical links

    Link devices to represent physical Ethernet connections and Wi-Fi associations. Use different line styles for trunk, access, and wireless links.

  5. 5

    Annotate and finalize

    Add port numbers, firewall rules, or inter-VLAN routing notes. Then export your diagram as PNG or share a live link.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a home network diagram with UniFi and VLANs?01
It’s a visual map of your home network showing Ubiquiti UniFi hardware and how VLANs segment traffic. It helps with planning, documentation, and troubleshooting.
How do I VLAN tag a UniFi network?02
In the UniFi controller, you define VLANs under Networks, assign them to SSIDs or switch port profiles, and optionally set up firewall rules between VLANs. Your diagram can mirror this logical setup.
Can I design a UniFi home network diagram for free?03
Yes, our online network diagram maker is free and includes UniFi-specific shapes. You can create, save, and share professional-looking diagrams without installing anything.
What are common VLANs for a UniFi home setup?04
Typical VLANs include a main/trusted network (VLAN 1 or 10), an IoT network (VLAN 20), a guest network (VLAN 30), and sometimes a management VLAN (VLAN 99) for UniFi devices.
How do I show inter-VLAN routing in a diagram?05
You can use a router or firewall icon with route annotations, or draw dashed lines between VLAN segments labeled with 'Inter-VLAN routing' to indicate which networks can communicate.
