  • Others have given you a good idea, but since you appear to be using Unifi for switch and firewall, o can give you a clear answer: Don’t set vlan on the Synology. Set it as the “Native” VLAN on the switch port going to the Synology.

    Synology can be vlan aware, but you don’t need it. Let the switch do the talking.

    On the Synology I recommend putting it on DHCP while you test. Once it starts getting an IP in the right subnet, you can then switch it to static. Just make sure your gateway is right, putting it wrong will cause the device to not be able to reach outside its own subnet.



  • M365 is doing away with all legacy authentication, do not be surprised if IMAP is completely unusable in the next 12 months. If you simply want to keep a copy of everything, a store and forward SMTP proxy would probably be the solution, so all email going to your domain would hit that first, then send off to M365.


  • The advantage of docker, as I see it for home labs, is keeping things tidy, ensuring compatibility, and easy to manage/backup setup configs, app configs, and app data. It is all very predictable and manageable. I can move my docker compose and data from one host to another in literal seconds. I can, likewise, spin up and down test environments in seconds too. Obviously the whole scaling thing that people love containers for is pointless in a homelab, but many of the things that make it scalable also make it easy to manage.

    Often you can mirror ports on routers and switches, this lets you send the same packets to a device as gets sent to your router. This will allow you to use something like wireguard to capture the packets and inspect them. Unfortunately for you, the vast majority of traffic is encrypted these days. So most of the time you can see how much data is being transmitted to Google, but not what data. Tools like Fiddler will help you on a specific machine, where it can decrypt it on the fly.
