I move large files, and find that wireless is painful. () 'Need' because I hate slow file copies over SMB :) Everything is dual-stack because I'm one of the crazy folks who love IPv6. Actual performance without any tuning is less than half of the line speed, but that's good enough for me since the SSD's are the bottleneck for file transfer now.įor VLANs/subnets, I keep things relatively simple: 1 network for trusted things (no restrictions), 1 network for untrusted things (internet access only), 1 network for wireguard (access to trusted network only no internet). The storage server just uses plain old Linux bridges to behave like a switch. I have my storage server connected to the main Aruba switch with 2x 10Gbps SFP+ DACs and then connected it to my desktop with 100Gbps fiber (Mellanox ConnectX-4). Nowadays, for things that need a link faster than 1Gbps, I just use a direct connection so I don't need power hungry switches.

They're easily heard two rooms away due to the high-pitched fan noise. They're also very significantly louder than a 2U Supermicro server. Unfortunately, these things were pulling 350W when idle and increased the temperature inside my rack by 15☏. For routing, I have a custom built desktop with a micro-ATX board which runs OpnSense.įor things that 'need' the performance ( ), I originally used a pair of Arista 7050TX's that I was kindly allowed to borrow from work. They are comparable to the IPv4 private network ranges (such as .y).My main switch is the Aruba S2500-48P (48x 1Gbps POE + 4x 10Gbps SFP+) and I use 2 Unifi UAP-AC-HD's for Wi-Fi (which I no longer recommend due to ongoing firmware issues).

Unique local addresses (ULA) are local IPv6 addresses which are not routed on the internet. Using this configuration, your Fritz!Box will offer Pi-hole's IPv6 as local DNS server to its clients via DHCPv6 as well as Router Advertisement (RA/RDNSS, SLAAC). Local domain name (optional): Fritz!Box uses fritz.boxĭistribute Pi-hole as DNS server via IPv6 ¶.IP address of your DHCP server (router): IP of the Fritz!Box, standard is 192.168.178.1.Local network in CIDR notation: Standard IP range of the Fritz!Box is 192.168.178.0/24.The Conditional forwarding option is responsible for this. All other requests are sent to the upstream DNS server of the Pi-Hole. Only those queries are sent to the Fritz!Box that attempt to determine hostnames for IP addresses (clients) of the local network.The Fritz!Box may only be the upstream DNS server of the Pi-hole if Pi-hole is not the upstream DNS server of the Fritz!Box. Optional: Allow DNS queries only from the Pi-hole Optional: Increasing the priority of DNS requests
