## Network Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### VLAN Strategy (Planned)
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Segment network into 4 VLANs
|
||||
**See**: [NETWORK-UPGRADE-PLAN.md](NETWORK-UPGRADE-PLAN.md)
|
||||
|
||||
| VLAN | Name | Subnet | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|------|--------|---------|
|
||||
| 1 | Default | 10.4.2.0/24 | Management, trusted PCs, Proxmox hosts |
|
||||
| 10 | Servers | 10.4.10.0/24 | Server containers, NAS |
|
||||
| 20 | IoT | 10.4.20.0/24 | Cameras, smart home, Home Assistant |
|
||||
| 30 | Guest | 10.4.30.0/24 | Guest WiFi, isolated |
|
||||
|
||||
**VLAN Tagging Methods**:
|
||||
- WiFi: UniFi APs (SSID → VLAN mapping)
|
||||
- Cameras: GS308EP (port-based VLAN)
|
||||
- Containers: Proxmox (bridge VLAN tag)
|
||||
- Wired PCs: Untagged (VLAN 1 via unmanaged switches)
|
||||
|
||||
### Router/Firewall (Planned)
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: OPNsense VM on Elantris
|
||||
**Reason**:
|
||||
- Free, full-featured firewall/router
|
||||
- VLAN routing and inter-VLAN firewall rules
|
||||
- IDS/IPS capability
|
||||
- Elantris has ample resources (128GB RAM)
|
||||
|
||||
**Alternative Considered**: Ubiquiti Dream Machine
|
||||
- Rejected due to cost and ecosystem lock-in
|
||||
- OPNsense more flexible for homelab
|
||||
|
||||
### 10G Backhaul (Planned)
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: 10G RJ45 between server closet and basement
|
||||
**Hardware**: 2× GiGaPlus 6-Port 10G PoE switches ($101 each)
|
||||
**Why GiGaPlus over UniFi**:
|
||||
- Native 10G RJ45 (no SFP+ transceivers needed)
|
||||
- Includes PoE for APs
|
||||
- $202 total vs $800+ for UniFi equivalent
|
||||
- Cat6 can handle 10G at house distances (<55m)
|
||||
|
||||
### WiFi (Planned)
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: UniFi APs with mixed models
|
||||
**Hardware**:
|
||||
- 1× U6 Enterprise (existing) - server closet/upstairs
|
||||
- 2× U7 Pro ($189 each) - basement + main floor
|
||||
|
||||
**Why UniFi**:
|
||||
- Multiple SSIDs mapped to VLANs
|
||||
- Seamless roaming between APs
|
||||
- Centralized management via controller
|
||||
- Better than Asus mesh for VLAN support
|
||||
|
||||
**Controller**: LXC on Proxmox (free) via community helper script
|
||||
|
||||
### Reverse Proxy
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Single Traefik instance handles all external access
