I'll start : I am looking to pay someone for phone help in setting up my homelab. I have good hardware (dedicated box for pfSense with intel 520-da2 ; Brocade 7250-48p top of rack, Brocade 7150-c12p downstream switch for home-office; Ruckus r510 AP, Synology NAS, Dell server running ESXi for VMs. common collection of Apple and Android phones and tablets, PC Workstation, laptops.

I have spent hours watching videos on VLANS and how to setup a secure home network and I do not get 'it' ; however, I know myself, I am smart and learn by doing something while someone is helping me .

Setup pfSense new install (ZFS RAID1); design my VLAN IP structure (right now, everything is 192.168.1.0/24).

I am thinking VLANS of : management, LAN-only items with no internet in or out ; Printer VLAN ; VOIP VLAN ; guess, etc

Setup VLANs, DNS, DHCP on pfSense box & Brocade 7250-48p. Once that is done, wish list is then clean up my ESXi vSphere network as I know its not done right.

Also, I know good Security is a giant pain the ass, but that's my desire - good homelab security.


This is home use and not a business, and while I have no set sum of $ in mind, gently said, it's not going to be the sums a business would pay. USA - East Coast. can be done daytime, nighttime or weekend. If my screens need to be seen to make your help easier, facetime or Signal video to show my screens (you can leave your camera off). For security reasons, i will not allow anyone to remote in to my LAN.

Payment via Paypal

I'd love to help, won't even charge you for it (there are easier ways to make money), but my hands, feet, neck, head, everything is full of to-dos, especially with two toddlers. If you can work with my VERY erratic schedule and non-availability quite often, drop me a line.
