- Wireless guests and un-trusted wireless IOT devices, e.g. xiaomi and ewelink
- Wireless users and tablets
- Gaming machines and media boxes
- An application/server type network
A lot of this has to do with configuring the router. I'm using the Asus RT-AC88U
Separating wireless traffic for guests
For splitting the wireless traffic, it's easy enough to use the wireless router and create a guest network without access to the intranet. This will allow "guest" devices to connect to the internet at a lower bandwidth and unable to connect to the local network.
QoS media, gaming and work machines
For gaming, i would say the router did it all. Just need to enable QoS and other router features that automatically prioritises the devices that you want.
Application/server network
The new 10.0.x.x VLAN was to host these
- Raspberry pi kubernetes cluster
Refer to raspberry pi kubernetes blog post
- Virtualised servers (Hyper-V)
When creating network interface, bind the network interface in hyper-v to the VLAN tag
- NAS
The QNAP NAS in networking > interfaces, has a drop down to add VLAN. Can use this and specify the static IP address for your server network.
The best thing about this is that I have a new network can simply set static IP addresses whenever I wanted. To enable routing between this network and the home network, I would suggest using the raspberry pi as a gateway and add the route to the router to allow all 10.0.0.0/16 traffic to be pointed to the 192.168.1.x IP address of the raspberry pi.
