Homelab

Sometimes you just get tired of paying AWS & Digital Ocean. A quick sketch of my homelab, inspired by the good folks at r/homelab.

The main goal of the project was to enable the quick creation of Virtual Machines (or containers), accessible by subdomain such as project1.mydomain.net, project2.mydomain.net, etc., all under a single dynamic IP address. I managed to make it work pretty well, with a little help from NGINX for reverse proxying, pfsense for local DNS and routing, ddclient for dynamic DNS, Proxmox for hypervisor management, and freeNAS for shared storage.

Note that the diagram is interactive (click for full-page version), and enabling or disabling certain layers may help in browsing. Configuration notes are included.
