[Home Lab]
[Project Title 1]
[One-line summary: e.g. A segmented home lab built on Proxmox and pfSense for practicing detection and incident response.]
01
Problem
[What goal did this lab address? e.g. needing a safe, isolated environment to practice attacks and detections. 2–4 sentences.]
02
Setup
[Describe the lab: host hardware, Proxmox node(s), pfSense firewall, and how the VLANs are segmented (e.g. management, servers, attacker, clients).]
[Lab diagram / screenshot goes here — e.g. network diagram showing VLANs and firewall rules]
[Figure 1: lab network diagram — VLANs, firewall, and key VMs.]
- [Hypervisor: Proxmox VE on (hardware)]
- [Firewall / router: pfSense with (number) VLANs]
- [VMs: (e.g. Windows client, Linux server, attacker box, log collector)]
03
What I did
- [Step 1: installed and configured Proxmox, storage, and networking]
- [Step 2: deployed pfSense and created VLANs with firewall rules between them]
- [Step 3: built the VMs and verified segmentation (what you tested and how)]
- [Step 4: added logging/monitoring and documented the build]

Results
[Metric 1]
[What it measures — e.g. alerts tuned]
[Metric 2]
[What it measures — e.g. hosts monitored]
[Metric 3]
[What it measures — e.g. time saved]
[Summarize the outcome in 2–3 sentences: what works now, what improved, and how you know.]

What I learned
- [Lesson 1: a technical skill you gained]
- [Lesson 2: a mistake you hit and how you fixed it]
- [Lesson 3: what you would do differently or add next]
