Started to build a new home lab recently, mainly with the intention to be able to run up a good number of virtual routers for learning purposes and experimenting with different technologies.
Currently it has:
- 2 x Cisco UCS C240 M4 servers running Proxmox
- Cisco 2911 router and 2960 switch used to provide management connectivity. The 2911 has a UCS E140S server module also running Proxmox for a couple of management VMs.
- Brocade ICX 7250 switch
- Fortigate 70F firewall
It is all sitting in my garage on an old IKEA coffee table at the moment although I should get a rack to mount it properly.
