Dedicated wifi for automation allows me to have devices such as Xiaomi Vaccuum, or security camera not phoning home. OpenWRT with good firewall rules completely isolate my “public” containers/VMs from my lan.
Server was built over time, disk by disk. I’m now aiming to buy only 12TB drives, but I got to sacrifice the first two as parity…
I just love the simplicity of snapraid / mergerfs. Even if I were to loose 3 disks (my setup allows me the loss of 2 disks), I’d only loose data that’s on these disks, not the whole array. I lost one drive once, recovery went well and was relatively easy.
I try to keep things separated and I may be running a bit too many containers/vms, but well, I got resources to spare :)
Well, to be honest if someone has access to my Wi-Fi, I’d consider that I’ve already lost. As soon as you’re on my lan, you have access to a ton of things. With this setup I’m not trying to protect against local attacks, but from breaches coming from the internet
Doesn’t need to be the case if you segment your network to protect against ARP.
