What's your network setup like?

[stepper]

Reading [MENTION=39938]Kosmik[/MENTION] Load Balancer configuration posts, I just wondered how's everybody's network looking like?

My setup is like this below:

 

[blaaislaai]

1 router
all devices connect wirelessly

1 router

This ^

Also have a range extender and a VoIP phone connected to the range extender via Lan cable but am looking at ways to change the network design. Looking to get one or more APs and another switch/router to further segregate the network

EchoLife HG612 modem connected to a Routerboard for internet.
3 x 16 port Gigabit switches, and 3 wifi AP's spread throughout the house. Wifi for tablets/phone/home automation senors. LAN for apache/nfs servers and various other S905X for dev/build environment.

Had to extend my dhcp range the other day

[MENTION=16789]DrJohnZoidberg[/MENTION] please show people how awesome that Ubiquiti topology view looks.

Fiber ONT
Mikrotik
5 Switches (I think... they are scattered all over the place - the ones I can't see are all powered with PoE)
3 Access Points

Nothing too hectic.

Huawei B315 providing WiFi through the house with a Raspberry Pi providing ad-filtering with Pi-hole, Dynamic DNS updates with a cronjob and a Mumble server. Sadly I cannot seem to get the B315 to point the DNS to the Pi-hole as I think it does not properly support sending DNS requests to a class A IP address. Or internal addresses. Either way, I have setup static IP's on all the devices to make use of the Pi-hole when linked to the WiFi here

Hehe, my network is bigger than my diagram, I just added my basics. Wait a few months, I got a pet project underway to "hide" my electronics with custom server cabinet form old tv/bar cupboard and other ideas. probably worth doing a full diagram one day

I have way too much crap for one person

Fibre lands in ONT box -> Ubiquiti UniFi Security Gateway -> 8-port gigabit switch

Switch connections:
1) UniFi Security Gateway
2) Unifi Cloud Key Controller
3) UniFi LR Access Point (PoE injector)
4) UniFi LR Access Point (PoE injector)
5) UniFi Outdoor+ Access Point (PoE injector)
6) CCTV NVR
7) My PC
8) Additional desktop PC

Around 350m of Cat5e shielded, grounded and UV-proof cabling used. Every switch connection has its own full-length cable. There is a stretch of flat roof between two parts of the house that has two cables running across and exposed to the elements - one to a different attic to connect to the 2nd indoor AP and another that connects to the Outdoor+ AP. Been a while now without any issues so I'm assuming they can take the sun.

Everything works beautifully. Very happy with the investment.

This will probably change get one big smart switch and just do vlans also for guests

Wanted to also ask if there is a South Africa Home Lab Discord?

If not would you guys want to create one?

Fortigate 60E 20/20 connection

Unifi AP plugged into port 1, AP management IP on default untagged VLAN1
HomeWifi on VLAN 10
GuestWifi on VALN66 - I broadcast a open SSID for this with a 4Mb/4Mb limit, sometimes people connect, no idea who they are and can't care less
RB750 plugged into port 5, BGP setup between the firewall and RB, another AP plugged into the RB for testing crap etc

Your home ESXi host is a bladecenter?

Wow nice network setups here, I need a better AP. The wifi on the MR200 with Openwrt is terrible.
