 ===== About =====
-A friend and I have a homelab setup in his basement, as well as a few components in my parents house and in my appartment. We have been slowly amassing assorted old servers to add to this lab so that we have a fun playground and can host all the game servers and websites we want.

 My friend is using 2 of the PIs to run his website.

 We have 2 Netgear S3300-28X switches so that we can use link aggregation to get a redundant, high throughput storage network connection.
+Each location is assigned a 10.**x**.0.0/16. Subnet ip ranges are standardized to:
+  * 10.x.**0**.0/24 : DMZ
+  * 10.x.**1**.0/24 : Admin
+  * 10.x.**2**.0/24 : LAN
+  * 10.x.**3**.0/24 : Other
+This way the ipsec tunnel only has to allow access to 10.X.0.0/23 externally, and can safely block incoming to anything else. Anything that does not have a 10.x address is only for local access/internet access and will not be able to traverse the ipsec tunnel.
+Here is a netmap! I removed some information from it but it should give a decent idea of how I have things setup
