Let's talk about VLANs

I'm 5 minutes in, and that thing you do with your thumbs is super distracting.

I think it's great that this guy literally just tells you what he's typing without explaining why.

When you mentioned the 192 address space as the default I was like, aww, he doesn't have a Unifi device. But then you set everything up in the exact same UDM Pro I have, so thanks so much for the video! Love your content, it's excellent.

Thank you for a fun video to watch. I hope to see more!.

Why do you prefer a class A address ? Just curious

Also there are Vlans that are reserved

What is the knife used in the video thumbnail? I've seen it before and it's driving me crazy that I can't remember.

Holy christ the arm movement ugh

Did I miss the Pihole DHCP and DNS server for the different VLANs video? Or did the fans not ask nicely enough?

Kudos!

Just want to say thanks for providing these videos man. Also, I'm a fan of how you go about presenting them. Good stuff my friend!

I'm using a ProCurve lol

Your "progress bar" is a very cool idea :)

separating servers from clients can be tricky....you would then rely on the routing capacity of your router to route traffic between networks (unless you have a router on a stick configuration in which your switch is acting as a L3 switch and is doing inter-vlan routing) - this is fine if every vlan has its own physical interface, but becomes tricky if you use the same interface for many many vlans. You avoid broadcasting traffic at the expense of pushing all traffic through the same interface and saturating its bandwidth.

Everything in this video is subnetting.
You are not using VLANs.

ask nicely 😁

really struggling to get vlans into windows 10 / server 19 guests, any videos would be welcomed!

Shout out to Ex Novo brewery in Corrales New Mexico :)

Well, now I know what I'M gunna be doing with the home network this next weekend!!! Thank you for the great tutorials. 👍

Who, who who, too much, too fast, no visuals, my head is going to explode.

I wonder if the flavors you're getting from the hazy IPAs are about temperature. What about cooling more for the initial open and taste and then considering the profile more as it warms? What if you just like hazy IPAs when they're colder?

how do you manage traffic between vlans? like if you want say devices on you guest network to have access to your plex server on an other vlan. is it just a matter of giving the plex server access to both vlans so that it has one ip address for each vlan?

Actually no, it's not my IP. LOL "FAIL"

Awesome... I wanted to ask..
Why use pi-hole as DHCP too? Will it be better to use UniFi as DHCP and pi-hole as DNS like your other tutorial?

Hey, definitely looking forward to a prtg video!

Please do not use the SSIDs you setup for the video. I'm sure you're aware of how to look that up.

ProCurve=Cancer

I don't know if this is something you would be intrested in doing but can you make a tutorial on how to build and setup a NAS and recommend to us the minimum specs we should use? i'm very confused on what parts should i buy, and i'm worried that if I buy low specs or old hardware it might not work properly

Over Covid, I used your videos to set up a simple Unifi home network (USG, 8 port unifi poe switch & Nano AP).
Would you consider a video on how to set up Unifi to give the BEST possible Zoom meeting experience?
I have 300mb Fios, and sometimes, intermittently, my Zoom meetings just come to a crawl or even disconnect.
I'm hoping you might have some advice on settings for QoS to prioritize Zoom traffic. I saw something about enabling "Smart Queues ".
The info icon says "Prioritizes traffic and reduces delays when the router/bandwidth becomes overloaded"
I did that, but I don't really know what it did or if it helped yet. It seems to have reduced my network speed when I do a speed test.
I have struggled to find a good video that walks me through this in a way that is easy to follow and understand.
Thanks again, and keep up the GREAT work!!

"[...] and one printer [shudders]"
same. I've managed to keep my printer working pretty well but I don't have room near my router to hard-wire it and its WiFi support is... well... it exists...
When I have a non-rented place of my own, I intend to put my printer somewhere where it can reach a network port or switch port so I don't have to worry about the wifi ever again.

Nicely?

Wait, What?..Cant stop watching your hand movements.., so close to that open beverage, Yikes! At least keep it an arm length away..

PRTG yes!

You would be surprised if you compare the efficiency of devices in and out of a Vlan. Let's talk about 100 clients. The difference is imperceptible even with heavy traffic. If you have less than 100 clients it is not worth the time wasted to manage the amount of documentation. Today 2020 a modern managed switch can handle very well with hi packages demand.

Saying the switch forwards out broadcasts to addresses 1-254 is a little misleading since switches are layer 2 devices. I know it's a little pedantic, but it's true :)

I have grown to appreciate the Procurve switches I have at work.

Funny, i was just thinking about this to split my home connection.

you never mention how to set up IGMP Snooping in new VLANs (if possible that is) in a network.
I have an IPTV setup box from my isp a having a hard time routing tv through my L3 switch.
the tv setup box gets an IP from the router but also receives IP addresses outside the scope from the isp.
somehow this isn't working properly or am I missing something?

Cool video, but I think it's a bit overkill. Sometimes simpler is better.

Your audio is distorting, Please adjust levels to be more moderate. I can't listen to this.

Love it!!! I'll do it for sure... but please, please, please, do a video on Pi-Hole as DNS and DHCP server for the main network. Just to explain my idea. Here at my home I have a total of 5 computers, 5 portable devices, 3 game consoles, 1 rack server with some virtual servers (one being the Pi-Hole DNS as you teach in the past video), I also have some IP cameras in the network a NVR device for recording the cameras and Smart TV's. Mainly, what I want to achieve here is to separate the Computers, Consoles, Devices from the cameras and some servers. My router is a TP-LINK ER-6120 and it does support VLAN and also is the main DHCP server in my network. I can also use a MikroTik Hex Rb750gr3 but I'm still studding it. My main doubt is about having access to my cameras from different VLAN's, and still have my main network protected. Also, do a video on Pi-Hole DHCP, this is very interesting.

that's not my router's ip address lol!

Good stuff!

What about less common ip ranges reserved for carrier-grade NAT?

Wtf i didn't understand anything

Do you have any recommendations vlan switch for use with pfsense?
