1. ISP Entry (Public Internet)

Your external connection from the ISP network into the home perimeter.

Bell Home Hub 3000 (Modem)

IP Address: 192.168.2.1

2. Perimeter Security & Routing

Traffic routing, port forwarding rules, and secure entry points.

Primary Home Router

IP Address: 10.9.9.1

3. Home Lab Infrastructure (Proxmox)

Virtualization hypervisor resources, storage specifications, and hosted guest environments.

Active VM & Container Disk Allocations

Proxmox uses directory storage (local mapped to /var/lib/vz) on the root partition. The virtual disks are stored as raw/qcow2 image files and represent the following sizes and actual SSD space consumption:

VMID / Name Type Virtual Allocated Size Actual Disk Space (Used) Host Backend Mount / File
VM 100: home-assistant VM (QEMU) 32.0 GB 11.0 GB /var/lib/vz/images/100/vm-100-disk-0.qcow2
LXC 101: frigate LXC Container 320.0 GB 316.0 GB /var/lib/vz/images/101/vm-101-disk-0.raw (via /dev/loop0)
LXC 102: nginx-proxy-manager LXC Container 4.0 GB 2.9 GB /var/lib/vz/images/102/vm-102-disk-0.raw (via /dev/loop2)
LXC 103: CT103 LXC Container 8.0 GB 2.7 GB /var/lib/vz/images/103/vm-103-disk-0.raw (via /dev/loop1)
LXC 104: postgres-db LXC Container 16.0 GB 1.1 GB /var/lib/vz/images/104/vm-104-disk-0.raw (via /dev/loop3)
LXC 105: docs-webhost LXC Container 8.0 GB 0.7 GB /var/lib/vz/images/105/vm-105-disk-0.raw (via /dev/loop4)

Note: The virtual disks are stored as sparse files, meaning they only consume physical space on the SSD as data is written (e.g., Frigate has written 316 GB of video/data to its 320 GB allotment).

Proxmox Host Server

IP Address: 10.9.9.226

Physical Host Storage (SSD Details)

The host runs on a single physical drive with local directory-based storage:
