I diagrammed out my home lab/home server setup, mostly to keep a complete overview of how everything connects. I didn’t want to get bogged down in aesthetics around colour scheme, or layout – as you can no doubt tell. After a while diagramming it started to feel like a meme where I was trying to convey some crazy conspiracy theory on a wall of pinned paperwork and connecting threads. I think I am done documenting everything. But now I am wondering how obsessive I should be about detailing every little thing and VLANs and IP assignments. I don’t really care if it looks like a dog’s dinner, I really just care about “okay, where does this wire go to?” Is that the right approach?

    Let me deal with this train to zone, then I will bring back a bunch of guards with me that you are KoS too. :-)

    Did you see “The Cauldron” too?

      Yes I love the EQ references. Still my favorite MMO TO DATE pre Lucian.

      Only game where a death would make me pretty late for work.

      Having all the clients in your diagram is a bit much but it’s your diagram. We have over 1M client end points and just call it user or used to. Things change but love your setup. My home lab has been in use for years. My powered off servers and switches could make another lab for someone. To much power draw for me.
