Create A Board

InfraCanvas opens to a blank canvas. Add components from the left catalog, then arrange them on the board.

Useful first steps:

• Add devices, services, networks, data stores, or process elements.
• Use the Connect tool to create links between components.
• Select connectors to edit labels, routing style, and connector type.
• Export diagrams to PNG or PDF when you need to share a snapshot.

Connector Types

Connector type describes the meaning of the relationship:

• Generic
• Ethernet
• Wi-Fi
• Fiber
• VPN
• Power / PoE
• Dependency

Connector style controls the route shape:

• Straight
• Elbow

These are separate so a connector can be, for example, Wi-Fi + Elbow or Ethernet + Straight.
