Hello,
I'm a software developer but need now to set up an on-prem testing/staging/deployment network. I have Linux skills and have been managing a simple LAN for many years. I've been reading everything I can find on the net re network management, get the basic ideas, but still feel uneasy.
I have a static FIOS IP address. I would like to set up a three-zone network: DMZ for web servers; Dev for development, testing, and staging systems, and NAS for dev files and back up. I don't expect high web traffic, but want a plan in place to move websites to the cloud efficiently if traffic warrants. Meanwhile, I need to keep monthly overhead minimal.
I do understand that I'll need a proxy server to host more than one website.
The network will support several NUCs, an Antsle server, and a Synology DNS481play NAS.
I have two pieces of network gear that may help but I don't understand if I need one, both, or something else:
-- A Protectdli Model FW108 120 with pfSense
-- Ubiquiti EdgeRouter LITE
I'd much appreciate any help in defining the architecture and any security precautions I need to build the network I need.
Many thanks,
LRP
