Network Maintenance 2017-08
- We've acquired an R610, with a second on the way.
- Two Core-2-Duo 1U servers have been offered.
- The rack is getting crowded.
We would like to:
- Optimise the layout within the rack, to avoid wasting half-depth spaces.
- Separate the border routing and internal firewall/router functionality.
- Upgrade routing hardware to cope with gigabit uplink.
Specific plans:
- Move Hacklab NAT IP from 185.34.62.1 to 185.34.62.2 (to allow router separation).
- Deploy new border router on PC server hardware, running BSDRP.
- Deploy new internal router on PC server hardware, running pfSense.
- Retain Mikrotik as a backup border router.
- Move shelf-mounted routers and RPis from mid-rack to top-rack (co-locate behind the HUBS fibre).
