Network

A few weeks ago, my friend Ondra and I performed a significant refresh of our weekend house network.

The objectives were:

1. Connect two buildings with a fiber link
2. Install an LTE dish to provide better Internet connectivity

The further objectives are:

3. Replace the old SSIDs with a single SSID to enable seamless roaming across the property
4. Segment the one newly created network into multiple VLANs and reassign the existing networking and IoT devices
5. Set up new firewall rules to secure the infrastructure and allow only the necessary traffic

I will show you how to daily backup your Mikrotik configuration. This uses ssh, bash, and systemd-timer. The aim for this mini project is to be as simple as possible but it supports multiple target devices!
