Bluprint: a free diagramming tool built for NetScaler
Draw NetScaler architectures the way you actually think about them, layer by layer, without fighting a generic diagramming tool to get there.
Most diagramming tools treat a NetScaler ADC like any other box on a page. You still have to build your own shapes, remember which IP address goes where, and redraw the same topology three times for Layer 2, Layer 3 and routing. Bluprint is different. It's a free, browser-based diagram tool that Blubyte built specifically for NetScaler, so it already knows what a Content Switching vServer is, how an HA pair is usually laid out, and how components are typically ordered inside a NetScaler environment.
Free to use. No sign-up, no login, no credit card but still your drawing.
Why we built a diagram tool just for NetScaler
General-purpose tools like draw.io are great for boxes and arrows, but they don't understand NetScaler. You end up manually building the same ADC shape, load balancer, and vServer icons for every project, and re-entering the same IP addresses, VLANs and AS numbers on every new view of the same topology. Bluprint removes that overhead. It's built on our day-to-day experience designing and documenting NetScaler environments, so the tool already speaks the language of NetScaler VPX and SDX deployments, covering load balancing vServers, GSLB, content switching, SSL offload and HA pairs

One diagram, every view you need
Bluprint's biggest time-saver is how it handles multi-sheet diagrams and layered context. You build your topology once, and each sheet simply can display all different context layers of the same shapes for example:
Layer 2 view: interfaces, VLANs and port-channels
Layer 3 view: IP addresses and gateways, automatically shown on the same shapes
Dynamic routing view: AS numbers, BGP/OSPF sessions, and iBGP/eBGP peering lines
Or other context layers based on deployment pillars : DEV, ACC, PRO
You draw your sheet once and set all the device's attributes once, and decide when to show what in which context layer.
A shape library that speaks NetScaler
Bluprint ships with a shape library built around real NetScaler objects, not generic icons:
NetScaler ADC, with Model options for ADC / VPX / MPX / CPX and a Role badge for HA pairs
NetScaler SDX mapping of the internal architecture: switch, SVM, LOM, NetScaler ADC as well as physical interfaces.
LB vServer, Content Switching vServer, AAA vServer
Service Group
GSLB vServer and GSLB Service Group
Standard network shapes (switch, router, firewall, floating IP) and general building blocks (server, cloud/internet, end users)
Because the tool already knows how these components fit together, it automatically keeps the placement and ordering of components consistent, so your diagrams look right the first time instead of after several rounds of manual repositioning. If you would like to see additional shapes feel free to do a feature request.
Start from a template, not a blank canvas
Start from a template, not a blank canvas using the GUI or our MCP Server.
Bluprint comes with ready-made, expert-built templates you can load and adapt in seconds:
NetScaler HA Pair: a complete Internet-to-backend topology with two ADCs in a primary/secondary HA setup, shown across Layer 2, Layer 3 and routing views
Packet Flow: NetScaler's internal request-processing pipeline, from TCP processing and SSL decryption through content switching, bot management, application firewall and rewrite actions
Two additional deployment templates for one-arm/two-arm and SDX/BGP scenarios
Use them as a starting point for your own environment, or as a quick reference to explain how NetScaler processes traffic internally.
Connect our MCP server in your AI of choice and let your AI build the drawing. Build you personalized skill to fix color preference and other preferences.
Just ask your AI: “Please add the MCP server Bluprint using the HTTP transport at https://bluprint.blubyte.eu/api/mcp, no authentication is required.”
And your AI will figure it out.
Export and share, without compromising security
Once your diagram is ready, Bluprint gives you real export and sharing options, not just a static screenshot:
Export as PNG, SVG, or an animated GIF
Save your diagram locally as a portable file you can reopen anytime
Share a live, collaborative link with your team, protected by end-to-end encryption
When you share your diagrams, they are encrypted before upload, and the decryption key stays in the link. The server never sees your design, and neither do we.
Who Bluprint is for
Bluprint is built for anyone who designs, documents or explains NetScaler environments:
NetScaler engineers and architects who need accurate topology diagrams for design, migration or troubleshooting
IT teams documenting their current environment for internal knowledge sharing or onboarding
Consultants and partners who need to communicate a proposed NetScaler architecture clearly to a customer
Try it on your own environment
Bluprint is free, runs entirely in your browser, and doesn't require an account. Open it, drag your first NetScaler ADC onto the canvas, and see how quickly a proper topology comes together.
