Hi,

I'm configuring my home network together with a PVE host. I'd like to organize it as a local class B subnet organized as XXX.XXX.category.clientId.

- 10.1.0.X = ISP stuff (modem/router with web interface)
- 10.1.1.X = router DHCP client range (computers, phones, visitors, smarthome devices, ..)
- 10.1.2.X = real infrastructure (PVE hosts) - 1x permanent server, 1x desktop pc dualboot, 1x raspberry pi
- 10.1.3.X = public virtual infra (proxies to private infra, file shares, vpn, ..) - port forwarded in the router
- 10.1.4.X = local virtual infra (development servers, smarthome servers, ..) - accessible from LAN only
- 10.1.5.X = private virtual infra (family website, ..) - accessible from LXC/VMs through whitelisting only

My expertise is development and not so much networking, but I won't shy away from trying to set this up as a semi-professional network without redundancy. Working out a custom setup will help me understand networking better for my job too. Is this a logical setup? My router does not support VLANs, but they're probably required for 10.1.5.X, what do you suggest instead? Links to guides or named concepts are very appreciated.

My current work-in-progress setup is added in screenshots. The 100Mbps in the screenshot is only for power saving until I start setting up file shares. ;)

Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eno1 inet manual

iface enp3s0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address 10.1.2.1/16
        gateway 10.1.0.1
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0

Thanks for any suggestions!
