I picked up the Netgear GS308E because it has both a sufficient amount of ports for my needs, and it supports VLANs. It also has a nice sturdy metal frame which was a pleasant surprise. After setting up this Netgear switch, it shoud be possible to access the web interface at [http://192.168.0.239](http://192.168.0.239). It may be at a different address. To find the address, try checking your DHCP leases in your router interface (if you plugged it into an existing router). I realized I was unable to access this interface because I was on a different subnet, so I set my machine's address to `192.168.0.22` in order to temporarily setup this switch. I assigned a static ip address to the switch (in `System > Switch Information`) so that it was in the same subnet as the rest of my network. diff --git a/content/post/watching-youtube-in-private/index.md b/content/post/watching-youtube-in-private/index.md index 1ae60069..8bd7e377 100644 --- a/content/post/watching-youtube-in-private/index.md +++ b/content/post/watching-youtube-in-private/index.md @@ -5,7 +5,16 @@ lastmod: 2022-12-10T21:46:55-05:00 draft: false keywords: [] description: "" -tags: ["invidious", "degoogle", "youtube", "yewtu.be", "tailscale", "privacy"] +tags: + [ + "invidious", + "degoogle", + "youtube", + "yewtu.be", + "tailscale", + "privacy", + "self-hosted", + ] categories: [] author: "" diff --git a/content/post/what-to-do-with-a-homelab/index.md b/content/post/what-to-do-with-a-homelab/index.md index 10abcf92..04bbc630 100644 --- a/content/post/what-to-do-with-a-homelab/index.md +++ b/content/post/what-to-do-with-a-homelab/index.md @@ -5,12 +5,26 @@ lastmod: 2021-09-06T01:12:54-04:00 draft: false keywords: [] description: "" -tags: ['tailscale', 'homelab', 'netdata', 'jellyfin', 'plex', 'pihole', 'virtualization', 'adguard', 'grafana'] +tags: + [ + "tailscale", + "homelab", + "netdata", + "jellyfin", + "plex", + "pihole", + "virtualization", + "adguard", + "grafana", + "self-hosted", + ] author: "Dave Gallant" --- -A homelab can be an inexpensive way to host a multitude of internal/external services and learn *a lot* in the process. +A homelab can be an inexpensive way to host a multitude of internal/external services and learn _a lot_ in the process. + + Do you want host your own Media server?
