Copper 100/100 from the wall
Dell PowerConnect 2724 (vLAN1)
Smoothwall P4 512MB ram, D-Link DFE-570TX.
Dell PowerConnect 2724 (vLAN2)
A few PC's on the network, wont list hardware, since they change regularly, and honestly, any PC should be expected to work with the NAS.
D-Link DGS-1008D
ReadyNas NV+ (4x ST2000VX002-1AH166, 2TB drives, X-Raid.)
LG 42LX650N
XboX (Yeah, the real one. The old one)
Amiga A1200
Dell PowerConnect 2724 (vLAN3)
Wireless. Phone, laptops, visitors, and neighbors who freeload. Generally locked from accessing the internal network by the SmoothWall. Temporary access granted on MAC.
vLAN1 is simply "the outside" so i can hook up more then the SmoothWall system there. vLAN2/3 is green and orange zones on the SmoothWall system. My main use for the NV+ is simply entertainment, so i stuck the D-Link switch on the green part of the SmoothWall net, and stuck the Telly, XboX, Amiga and left a few cables for visitors who want to go by wire, over at that entertainment end of the living-room. The rest should be self-explainatory. If not, ask.
