    How is everyone setting up Local AI in thier home labs? Idea thread.

    NVFP4 quants for Qwen 3.6 35B A3B with MTP are finally out and I'm testing them now vs. Q5. So far they're just as accurate if not a little more so with structured file formats like YAML and writing Python scripts. At least on the GB10 hardware it's also improved token generation from ~40 to...

    How is everyone setting up Local AI in thier home labs? Idea thread.

    Will do, taking a short vacation over the next week and after I’ll take a look. Thanks!

    How is everyone setting up Local AI in thier home labs? Idea thread.

    It wasn't a cheap solution but I added an Asus GX10 (DGX Spark variant) and it's been awesome. Huge 128GB of VRAM lets me run Qwen 3.6 35B-A3B Q5 with Vision mod, ComfyUI, a Tdarr node with 2 possible concurrent transcodes, an Immich ML container, and I've still got roughly half the VRAM...

    Asus GX10 (NV GB10) node feedback?

    I just set one up in my network a little over a week ago. I don't have any other GB10 machines to test against, but I can't say I've noticed any show-stopping negatives so far, considering I moved from an old test box with an AMD mobile 6600M with 8GB VRAM. Limitations in software definitely...

    LAN Traffic Kills WLAN

    Have you checked your trunks for native VLAN mismatches? Can you be absolutely certain you don't have a client broadcasting something it shouldn't? This seems like default switch behavior where unknown traffic is flooded to all ports. I'd start by setting your endpoint devices switchports to...

    Internet Traffic Reporting Device

    Managed switch setup to SPAN your interface to the ISP or your router. Set a SPAN member interface on that switch to connect to a machine running Security Onion.

    Routing issues

    Okay, but still not traceroutes shown... you haven't given us all of the info needed to troubleshoot without just blindly guessing. I'm out, hope that someone can help you.

    Routing issues

    Okay, so I see at least two possible subnets but hard to say without knowing the netmasks. Give us more info on your topology. VLAN’s, routes, trunks. Sanitize it if you want but I assume you’re using private IP‘s so not really necessary. Traceroute results needed. STP/RSTP in use? What...

    Routing issues

    Without seeing the traceroutes or knowing more about your L3 topology, impossible to tell you. Need more than just a L1 diagram to troubleshoot L2 and L3!

    PoE powered 2.5G switch?

    The CRS304 is a 4-port NbaseT switch with PoE in, but it's only via a 100Mbit (may be 1Gb - I forget) interface. The issue is with that port it's for management and connected to the CPU, not the switch chip so using it with the bridge could cause performance issues. I'd expect this to be true...

    PoE powered 2.5G switch?

    I can vouch for this switch and it's PoE-out brother. I'm currently using the Flex 2.5G PoE as a WAN switch to do some trickery with my main ISP's connection. VLANs work great but don't expect any higher-end features like 802.1x CoA as that isn't supported. For @Crix1990 - If you're not...

    pfSense Same NIC port has DHCP if configured as LAN but no DHCP if configured as VLAN on same NIC port

    That's because your dot1q tags are at layer 2 and the VPN operates at layer 3 or higher, depending on which type you use. You could do L2TP tunnels, one for each VLAN you need bridged across the routers. This could get weird as you'll only want to route through one connection at a time, but if...

    Need help finding a switch

    Unfortunately there's not a single switch I'm aware of that fits your requirements. I also want a wide mix of features in one device but never could scale down my setup to make that work! This may be out of your price range at ~999USD (I paid $860 on US Amazon), but the Mikrotik...

    Something I'm doing wrong with Brocade 6450 setup. Not able to connect

    Yeah, that'll break your access to the SVI for sure! Your ARP table would have some confusion as to which was which.

    Something I'm doing wrong with Brocade 6450 setup. Not able to connect

    Are your trunk ports up? Are they tagging the VLAN that your SVI uses? Are the trunks configured properly on the other side?

    ATTO 3102- Thunderbolt Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx (Dual Port 25GbE) - $189 or less

    Do you happen to still have the 3252-specific flash bundle? The current downloads seem to include all in the same bundle so my fear is that it won't allow to flash from the 10GbE sku to the 25GbE. I did find the individual firmware bins in the linux download zip. Currently searching for the...

    How to configure Wi-Fi module under Debian 13 server?

    Yeah, nmtui that tags along with NetworkManager makes connecting to WiFi via CLI so much less painful.

    Help with complete new setup

    Probably best left to the router. If you're using Tailscale, which is kinda awesome, you can have a device act as a subnet router. Basically you can tell the Tailscale control plane to let that device provide routes to other subnets on your local network. This is probably it's best feature...

    Help with complete new setup

    For OP, not preaching at you but hope this helps you learn: Here's the big issue with L3 switching on the cheap: securing it comes with pretty big performance hits. Most of your entry-level Netgear and such that advertise Layer 3 routing don't have dedicated hardware to do that and instead...
