We’ll go over each component in the setup, including the VIVO server rack, OPNsense firewall running on the ZimaBoard 832, TP-Link smart switch, Slate AX access point, and the AOOSTAR WTR Pro running TrueNAS. I’ll walk through what each device does, how it fits into the environment, and why I chose it. Whether you're building your own lab or just curious about the gear powering mine, this tour gives you a complete look at the hardware stack that keeps everything running smoothly.
