I have recently stumbled across DN42 and have been fairly excited to transition my networking know how from layer 3 meshing via OLSR (back in the NTFreenet days) to now understanding more of complex enterprise networks.
What better way to learn about such things than to:
- Install a complex enterprise network in your own home
- Make sure you have outage sensitive customers on the network. Any Wife, kids or friends will usually do
And so with this in place I introduce my humble home lab.
Details
The network is so far comprised of:
- 2x Ubiquiti ERL
- 2x Ubiquiti Rocket M2
- 1x Cisco SG200-26
- 1x Linksys SLM2008
- 1x Fritzbox 7270 + Fritzfon DECT handset
- 1x Asus WL500GPV2
- 1x Netcomm NB6PLUS4
- 1x Dovado GO + Seirra Wireless 320U
There are also some servers
- 1x SmartOS host - 2x gbit nics plus 1x IPMI
- 1x QNAP TS-410 - 2x gbit nics
And finally some 11 clients between wired clients, mobile clients and media devices.
Layer 1 and 2
Things a pretty boring here. You can see most of the detail already in the picture at the start of this post. None the less here is the documentation for my benifit.
I have not really found a cleaner way for this short of tables so you will have to suffer through or suggest a better alternative!
